ATLANTA, Ga. – During the Utah Jazz’s road contest against the Atlanta Hawks, the home team honored Jazzman Kyle Korver for his time spent playing for the Hawks.
Korver played for Atlanta from 2012-17 and was named an NBA All-Star for the first and only time of his career in the 2014-15 season.
In his time in a Hawks uniform, Korver averaged 10.9 points per game on a 46.2 field goal clip with an insane rate of 45.2 percent from beyond the arc.

After his days with the Hawks, he was acquired by Cleveland to provide LeBron James and the Cavaliers with some 3-point scoring punch. He made it to the NBA Finals with the Cavs in 2017 and 2018.
Korver was sent to Utah for the second time in his career on Nov. 29, 2018 in trade that involved former Jazz guard Alec Burks.
The sharpshooter from Creighton University currently ranks fourth all-time in NBA career 3-pointers made.
