Maybe one of American friends can put me right on this one, but I seem to recall from my days over the ponf that "boxing out" is a term from basketball. I haven't heard of "button work" but would guess it has something to do with mopping up, running around, making yourself a nuisance.
Correction

I meant to say "over the pond."

Anyway, just googled "boxing out" and it is definitely used in basketball.
