Kyle Korver

Utah Jazz’s Kyle Korver, reflected on race relations in America and pondered his position as a white man playing in the NBA in an intensely personal essay published Monday on The Players’ Tribune. In the piece titled “Privileged” Korver touched on a variety of race-related topics and shared how he has struggled with the privilege [...]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have traded guard Kyle Korver to the Utah Jazz for Alec Burks and two future second-round picks. Cleveland had actively been shopping Korver this season and there had been significant interest from multiple contenders. But now that the trade is taking place there are many Cavs players that are “upset” by the [...]

Everything is fine in Cleveland. LOL, just kidding. It’s not. Far from it. The Cavaliers have the worst record in basketball, there seems to be a disconnect between their roster and their intended direction, and the interim head coach, Larry Drew, refuses to accept that he is, in fact, the interim head coach. Amid all [...]

Kyle Korver may not be a member of the Cleveland Cavaliers much longer. As the team scrambles to figure out a longer-term solution to fill the head-coach vacancy created by the firing of Tyronn Lue, it’s also attempting to steer deeper into its youth movement by gauging Korver’s market value, according to ESPN.com’s Adrian Wojnarowski [...]

The Cleveland Cavaliers have apparently realized they won’t be winning anything in the aftermath of LeBron James’ departure anytime soon. Extending Kevin Love over the summer without trading any of the veterans inferred a different plan. The Cavs, the thinking went, wanted to contend for a playoff berth. Maybe they still do. But according to [...]

The Cleveland Cavaliers are in a transition period after losing the best player in the NBA for the 2nd time in the past 8 years. They have decided not to completely blow it up, a decision made clear when they decided to sign their only all-star caliber player left, Kevin Love, to an extension. With [...]

Acquiring Kyle Korver isn’t enough for LeBron James. He still wants the Cleveland Cavaliers to trade for a point guard. From ESPN.com’s Dave McMenamin: As the Cleveland Cavaliers finalize a deal to acquire sharpshooter Kyle Korver from the Atlanta Hawks on Friday, LeBron James declared that the work is not done for the defending champions. [...]

By trading Kyle Korver to the Cleveland Cavaliers, the Atlanta Hawks have, ostensibly, started a fire sale. It is not a conventional auction in the most fundamental sense; it would be truly shocking to see them shop guys like Dwight Howard and Kent Bazemore, the latter of whom doesn’t hold much value anyway. The focus [...]

The defending champions clearly have a few chinks in their armor in their pursuit of a title defense this season, the lack of a veteran back up point guard for Kyrie Irving, and more recently, a way to compensate for J.R. Smith’s production and catch-and-shoot ability with him slated to miss several months. They found [...]

It took six games of mostly ugly basketball, but the Atlanta Hawks did it: They eliminated the shorthanded Boston Celtics and are advancing through to the second round of the playoffs, where the Cleveland Cavaliers await. The same Cleveland Cavaliers that swept them in the Eastern Conference Finals last year? Those same ones. Only healthier. [...]
