Player News
Kyle Korver is finalizing a deal on Tuesday to join the Hawks in a front office role.
Korver played for the Hawks from 2012-2017, which included his lone All-Star appearance during the 2014-2015 season. That was the season the Hawks won 60 games, and their starting five was named the Player of the Month in January of 2015. He'll move from a player development role with the Nets to the front office in Atlanta.
Kyle Korver is joining the Brooklyn Nets as a player development assistant coach on Steve Nash's staff, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic
Korver appeared in 58 games for the Bucks in 2019-20 but sat out last season. For his career, he shot a scorching 42.9% from 3-point territory.
Kyle Korver said he’s still deciding on whether or not to continue his NBA career.
“I’m not sure. I’ve talked to a few teams about it,” Korver said of a potential return. “Coming out of the bubble, I believe in honoring the game. I believe you honor the season with a good offseason. Coming out of the bubble with the quick turnaround, I didn’t feel I really did that. So I don’t want to cheat the game.” If he does latch onto a contender it sounds like he’ll need to some time to ramp up his conditioning but it would be nice to see one of the best sharpshooters of the last decade back in the NBA. Last season with the Bucks, Korver hit 41.8% from beyond the arc.
Kyle Korver said he will talk with his family before making a decision about his future.
The 39-year-old sharpshooter is now a free agent but it's possible he follows in Marvin Williams' footsteps and calls it a career. He has shown that he still has some gas left in the tank though, hitting 41.8% of his 3-pointers this season.
