WASHINGTON (AP) -Washington Wizards swingman Caron Butler was sick Wednesday night with the flu, leaving his team with eight healthy players for a game against the New Jersey Nets.
Butler joined Gilbert Arenas (knee), Brendan Haywood (wrist), Etan Thomas (knee), DeShawn Stevenson (back), Juan Dixon (elbow) and Andray Blatche (knee) on the sidelines for the Wizards, who entered the game tied with the Los Angeles Clippers for the worst record in the NBA.
Butler is second on the team in scoring (20.0) and rebounding (6.2) and leads the Wizards in assists (4.4) and turnovers (3.3).
