Butler Now Allowed Bench Straw-Chewing

Sunday was the first game Caron Butler played without his now-famous straw chewing. He had his second-best scoring night since the trade (19 points) and had a hot start with eight points in the first quarter on four-of-five shooting.

“Yeah, but I still need my straws,” Butler said.

And here’s the agreement Butler and the league came to: he can chew the straws on the bench but he has to throw them away when he goes into the game. Butler estimated he went 15-20 straws Sunday against New Orleans.

“It was cool,” Butler said. “They met me halfway.”
