The Hawks and unrestricted free agent Kyle Korver have a mutual interest in bringing Korver back to the team.
The team said they'd like to work something out with Korver, and the sharpshooter said he "really enjoyed my year here in Atlanta." Korver gave a very strong endorsement, saying "I like the same basketball that he [GM Danny Ferry] likes. I'm very open to coming back here." Korver will be in high demand in free agency, and with the Hawks needing to remake their entire roster, it's unclear what Korver's future holds. May 15 - 8:44 AM

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

The Hawks have "indicated" that they'd like to re-sign Kyle Korver.

Atlanta is rich with cap space and will be entering a huge offseason, and keeping Korver on a reasonable deal seems like a beneficial move for both sides. However, Korver will be in demand after nailing 2.6 3-pointers per game and doing so at a 45.7 percent clip, so the Hawks could just as easily lose him to another team.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

The Denver Post suggests impending free agent Kyle Korver could be a target for the Nuggets.

The Nuggets are desperate for some outside shooting, even if Danilo Gallinari (torn ACL) surprisingly makes it back for the start of the 2013-14 season. Korver would make a ton of sense, but he's going to attract plenty of attention. One of the game's premier riflemen, Korver tied for second in 3-pointers made per game (2.6) and ranked second in 3-point percentage (45.7).

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver and Anthony Tolliver shot a combined 8-of-11 from downtown for a combined 28 points off the bench during Game 4's 101-92 win over the Pacers.

Korver scored 19 points with five boards, one assist, one steal, one block and five 3-pointers while Tolliver hit three from deep for nine points. Atlanta's bench outscored Indiana's 30-19 and they also shot a sterling 45.8 percent from deep tonight. Al Horford was his usual solid self with 18 points, five boards, four assists, one steal and one block in 30 minutes. The Hawks' 28 points in the paint accounted for just 27.5 percent of their scoring tonight, so they are likely to have this kind of luck on Wednesday in Game 5.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

The Hawks will rest Kyle Korver in Wednesday's regular-season finale.

Korver recently missed a game for undisclosed reasons but tonight's night off is likely a symptom of the Hawks wanting to get healthy before the postseason begins. Korver's incredible 3-pointers streak of at 74 straight games with at least one triple will have to wait until the playoffs. DeShawn Stevenson will start.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver returned from sitting out Saturday's game and hit another 3-pointer on Wednesday to keep his streak of making one alive at 71 straight games.

Korver played just 18 minutes and scored six points, but it looks like his current focus is keeping the streak alive. Korver now hold the fourth-longest streak in NBA history behind Dana Barros (89), Michael Adams (79) and Dennis Scott (78).

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver was excused from Wednesday's shootaround, but he's expected to rejoin the team and play on Wednesday against the Sixers.

Korver was in uniform on Saturday but did not play, but it sounds like he'll be good to go vs. Philly and will be looking to continue his assault from behind the 3-point line.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver (undisclosed) returned to a full practice on Monday.

Korver is "banged up" with no other information about exactly what he's dealing with, but the good news is it's obviously not serious and he should be playing on Wednesday against Philly.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver will be in uniform on Saturday but he's unlikely to play.

Korver is "banged up" and isn't expected to see any action unless there's an 'emergency.' Get him out of your lineup if you can, and expect solid playing time for Anthony Tolliver at SF.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver is a game-time decision on Saturday, but John Jenkins (concussion) will be available.

Larry Drew described Korver as "banged up." The Hawks are extremely short-handed but Korver was able to warm up before the game, so there's still a chance he can play. If not, Anthony Tolliver will start at SF and should play heavy minutes.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver's streak of single-digit scoring games ended in grand fashion, as he lit up the Knicks for 25 points on 9-of-14 shooting, including a 6-of-10 mark from downtown.

He even had six rebounds, one steal and two blocks with zero turnovers, a rare eight-cat gem for Korver, who hadn't scored more than nine points since March 18. His big game was due partly to Devin Harris' absence with a sore foot, and Korver's owners should keep an eye on the Hawks' injury report.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver started but played 19 minutes vs. the Magic, scoring eight points with six rebounds and two assists.

He started out well enough tonight, but quickly picked up a few fouls and found himself benched in favor of Anthony Tolliver (eight points in 29 minutes). Korver now has seven straight games with single-digit scoring, the result of both lousy shooting and fluctuating playing time.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver hit three 3-pointers for nine points with five boards, three assists, one steal and two turnovers in 33 minutes on Sunday.

It was the 63rd game in a row with a triple and Korver has been shooting the lights out all season. He's making a ridiculous 46 percent from downtown and should be owned in all leagues that count treys.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver hit 3-of-8 shots, all 3-pointers, for nine points, seven rebounds and a block in Wednesday's win.

That makes 61 straight games with a 3-pointer for Korver, who has now started four straight games for Atlanta.

Kyle Korver - G/F - Hawks

Kyle Korver made four of his five 3-point attempts in Friday's win over the Suns, scoring 16 points with two boards and two assists in 30 minutes.

It's not even funny how unbelievably good Korver has been from downtown this year. It was his 58th game in a row with a triple and he raised his 3-point percentage to 45.9 percent on the season. He's one of the reasons that today's report of J.J. Redick getting a five-year, $40 million deal doesn't make much sense.
