Quote: | Report: Kyle Korver reaches one-year deal to join Milwaukee Bucks
The Bucks can never have enough shooting around a driving Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Enter Kyle Korver. The veteran sharpshooter will be headed to Milwaukee on a one-year contract, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.

Korver had a tough decision between Sixers and Bucks but relationship and history with Mike Budenholzer certainly played a major factor in Korver’s choice. https://twitter.com/wojespn/status/1152609436218941440 …

This is a quality pickup at the minimum (it is a veteran minimum contract). Korver averaged 8.6 points per game last season, taking 72 percent of his shots from beyond the arc and knocking down 39.7 percent of them. The man has gravity and pulls a defender because even at age 38 defenders cannot leave him. Shooting is a skill always in demand.
The Bucks will start Wesley Matthews at the two and have Sterling Brown behind him. They have Khris Middleton and Pat Connaughton at the three. Now they have some reliable veteran depth at those spots and a guy who can hit the big shot for them. |

Maybe the cold weather will keep him better preserved for the playoffs. _________________ "Suck it up. Don't be a baby. Do your job." - Kobe Bryant |

Hmmm... I wanted him here but I guess we have enough shooters. Best of luck in MIL, Kyle |
