It's still worth giving NAW some real minutes with real teammates. He's better than Forrest.

But how long until he earns Quin's trust? Butler doesn't have it. I think House does but you have to be in the rotation to pass the Quin test.
He’s got two weeks to overtake Forrest in the rotation.

Forrest played a lot as a rookie and he was undrafted.

No he didn't. In 72 games last year, Forrest played 30 games. In 59 games this year Butler has played in 28 games. Forrest last year averaged 10 min a game where as Butler is averaging 7 min a game. Also of not the jazz are deeper this year.
NAW can defend, he can self-create and he can score. If he'll limit his shot selection, he can make spot-up 3s. That's more than I can say about Forrest.

We have different definitions of “a lot”. Butler has played a higher percentage of games than Forrest btw. The problem is that Butler hasn’t been that good. Rookies on good teams don’t always get lots of play. You gotta earn it.
looks like he won't see minutes under quin for now. it's either he's still not comfortable with the plays or quin is not impressed at practice.
