Two years later, the playoffs were 30+! Butler joined the new high with 33+7+7. The final match was 8 minutes and 0 minutes invisible

On May 11, the Warriors continued to lack Curry in the third game of the Western Conference Semi-Finals. Butler ushered in an explosion in the game back to home, and he shouldered the Warriors' advance to take on the core responsibilities of the team. Butler contributed 33 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists in this game, setting a record high in a single game in the playoffs this year. It was also his first time joining the Warriors in the playoffs scored 30+ points. In addition, after two years, he scored 30+ points in a single game in the playoffs again. However, he was invisible when he did not score a decisive battle in the last 8 minutes and 16 seconds, resulting in the Warriors being reversed and lost 97-102.

Curry was in a state of recuperation due to a hamstring injury. In the last game, the Warriors lost to the Timberwolves 93-117 away. In this game, Butler scored only 17 points, 7 rebounds and 4 assists in 6 of 13 shots, missed the 4 consecutive playoff games and scored 20+ points, and suffered a decline in defense performance in the Timberwolves.

Now the Warriors are back at home, and with Curry continuing to be absent due to injury, Butler entered offensive mode early. Butler played 10 minutes and 36 seconds in the first quarter. He contributed efficient shooting with 5 of 7 shots. Butler did not shoot three-pointers from the outside in the first quarter, but continued to break through and layups, mid-range shots or throws, and made fouls and 1 of 2 free throws. Butler scored 11 points alone and became the only player to score in double digits in the first quarter. He also led the Warriors to successfully tie the score at the end of the first quarter when they were 9 points behind.

However, the Warriors' overall strength is inferior to the Timberwolves. After Butler was once again pulled a 10-point gap in the second quarter, he started the offensive mode again. Butler first broke through Divinchenzo and completed a dunk, then broke through the inside to complete a 2+1, and made a breakthrough and made a foul and made both free throws, leading a 13-1 offensive to overtake by 2 points. Butler made 7 of 13 shots and 4 of 5 free throws in the first two quarters, scoring 18 points, 3 rebounds and 3 assists, becoming the player with the highest score in the first half, and also led the Warriors to overtake the Timberwolves 42-40 by 2 points.

The side changes again, after the Timberwolves overtook the score again, Butler faced Edwards' defense, easily breaking through and getting rid of the defensive layup to regain the lead. Butler then continued to break through and score, and even made three-pointers from the outside, as well as assisted Hilder to hit three-pointers. Butler scored another 10 points in 4 of 6 shots in the third quarter, and also sent 4 assists in a single quarter. The combination of offense and pass led the Warriors to continue to expand their 4-point lead in the first three quarters. Butler has scored 11 of 19 shots and scored 28 points, 6 rebounds and 7 assists, and has set a record for a single-game score in this year's playoffs.

and in the final quarter, after the Timberwolves caught up with only 2 points, Butler immediately made a three-pointer from the outside, and then made two free throws. Butler scored 5 points in a row and led the Warriors to continue to expand their 5-point advantage. But Butler fell into a silence in the final stage of the final battle. He did not score a single point in the last 8 minutes and 16 seconds, becoming one of the important factors for the Warriors to be reversed.
