News: Guard Kyle Korver said the Hawks have expressed interest in re-signing him this offseason, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports. Korver, who is slated to be an unrestricted free agent on July 1, averaged 10.9 points and 4.0 rebounds over 74 games with Atlanta this year. “They said they would like to work something out, so we’ll talk in July,” Korver said. “I really enjoyed my year here in Atlanta. I enjoyed the team. I enjoyed the organization. I believe (general manager) Danny Ferry is going to do some great things here. I think he has a great opportunity to bring in guys who are going to play fun basketball."
Analysis: Korver's first season in Atlanta was generally viewed as a success as the 10.9 points he averaged was his highest scoring output since the 2006-07 campaign. However, his biggest asset to Fantasy owners and the Hawks this past year was his 3-point shooting. Korver knocked down 45.7 percent of his shots from behind the arc and also gave owners 2.6 made treys per game. Despite Atlanta's interest in re-signing the veteran, Korver is bound to draw a ton of interest from team's this offseason. Keep an eye on where he winds up suiting up next year. Fantasy owners should plan on targeting the 32-year-old in the later rounds of most draft formats next fall.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver was back on the floor Wednesday against the 76ers, after missing the team's previous game due to personal reasons. Korver extended his 3-pointer streak to 71 games, but it took him until halfway through the fourth quarter to notch his first make. He scored just six points on 2 of 4 shooting in the game, with one assist, one steal, one block and two rebounds in 18 minutes. The Hawks won the game, 124-101.
Analysis: If Korver is active, you know he's going to contribute some 3-pointers. That kind of reliability has made him a solid Fantasy option all season, even as he has shuffled in and out of the starting lineup. Korver is averaging 11.0 points per game, his best total since 2006-07. Korver is a free agent this offseason and will have little trouble finding work. He should be worth a look at the end of Fantasy drafts next season, especially in category-based formats.
News: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Hawks forward Kyle Korver missed shootaround Wednesday for a personal matter, but he is expected to be available for Wednesday night's game at the 76ers. Now, Korver did miss Saturday's game against the Spurs for an undisclosed injury, but it sounds like he will play against Philadelphia.
Analysis: Keep an eye on Korver's status prior to tip off, and if he does return against the 76ers then he should be considered a decent Fantasy option in the majority of leagues. We hope Korver does return and is able to finish the season on a high note.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver was ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Spurs due to an undisclosed injury. Coach Larry Dew told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that Korver is "banged up," but he did not specify what type of injury he had. He is officially being considered day to day, according to the team's official website.
Analysis: Korver was forced to miss some time a few weeks back due to a sprained toe, so there is a chance that flared back up on him again. Unfortunately, Korver will now be an injury risk heading into Fantasy Week 24 (April 8-14), so owners will have to keep an eye on his status moving forward. Korver is shooting 43 percent from the behind the arc (2.3 per game) over his last 10 contests, giving him value as a low-end option in most formats when healthy.
News: Hawks forward Kyle Korver's scoring lull continued during Saturday's contest against the Magic. Korver, who entered the game averaging 10.9 points on the year, finished with eight points in the 97-88 win -- his seventh straight game scoring in single figures. He went 3 of 7 from the field, including 1 of 3 from downtown, and also added six rebounds and two assists, while logging 18 minutes of game action.
Analysis: Korver's scoring has taken a slight dip in recent weeks as he hasn't scored in double figures in almost two weeks. A shooting slump is to blame for Korver's recent lull as he is shooting just 37 percent from the field over his last six games. However, he is still connecting on 41 percent of his 3-point attempts over that span, which does continue to give him value in deeper Rotisserie formats. Despite his shooting woes, owners looking for help in the 3-point department should consider rolling with 32-year-old in Week 23 (April 1-7).
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver made multiple three-pointers for the fifth game in a row Wednesday, as the Hawks defeated the Bucks, 98-90. Korver went 3 of 6 from long range and 3 of 8 overall, finishing with nine points in a start at small forward. He added seven rebounds and two assists in 35 minutes.
Analysis: Korver does not do much beyond shoot 3-pointers, but he remains among the best in the business at that. He missed both of his attempts from three-point range in the team's first game of the season, but has not gone without in 61 games since. He has made at least two in 47 of 62 games, and remains a very useful Fantasy option, especially in category-based formats.
News: Atlanta guard Kyle Korver came off the bench for 33 minutes on Wednesday during a win over the Lakers. The 3-point specialist nailed two of them and went 5 of 10 from the field overall for 15 points. He grabbed six rebounds and added two assists.
Analysis: Korver snapped a string of four straight games with only one 3-pointer with two on Wednesday night. He'd been putting up minimal numbers but has averaged in double figures this season. Korver's ability to score and knock down 3-pointers continues to give him value as a low-end option in most formats.
News: Atlanta guard Kyle Korver was able to get right back on the court during Wednesday's contest against the 76ers. Korver, who was forced to miss Atlanta's loss to the Nuggets on Monday night due to sprained right toe, finished with nine points in the 107-96 win. He went 1 of 3 from downtown and also added two assists and one steal to his stat line, while logging 33 minutes of game action.
Analysis: Korver's ability to score and knock down 3-pointers continues to give him value as a low-end option in most formats. Now that we know he's healthy, it is safe to keep him in lineups where applicable.
News: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports that Hawks guard Kyle Korver is a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the 76ers. Korver missed Monday's game at Denver due to a sprained right toe.
Analysis: Fantasy owners should check back prior to tip off to see if Korver can play or not. When healthy and active, Korver is a quality Fantasy option in the majority of leagues, especially rotisserie formats for his ability to shoot beyond the arc.
News: Hawks forward Kyle Korver was ruled out for Monday's matchup at Denver due to a sprained right toe, according to the team's official website. Korver, who is averaging 11.4 points over his last 10 games, was replaced by Anthony Toliver in the starting lineup. He is being considered day to day with his injury.
Analysis: There was no report of Korver's injury after Atlanta's loss to the Lakers Sunday night or at the team's shootaround Monday morning, so this came as a bit of surprise. While Korver's injury is not being considered serious, toe injuries can be a bit tricky -- especially for basketball players. As always, we will bring you the latest details on his status moving forward. Korver's ability to score and knock down 3s continues to give him value as a low-end option in most formats when healthy.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver had another solid performance Friday against the Suns, and he played 30-plus minutes for the fifth game in a row. Korver shot 6 of 10 from the field over 36 minutes, scoring 17 points, while added eight rebounds, two assists and two blocked shots in a 92-87 loss. He went 3 for 6 from three-point range in the game, his fifth multi-three game in the six games since the All-Star break.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 10.4 points per game over the last five, while playing 34.0 minutes per game. He has been in and out of the starting lineup, but Korver’s role pretty much never changes. You know Korver is going to score around 10 points per game, with a couple of three-pointers thrown in at a high success rate. Korver does not give big numbers, but he remains a useful Fantasy option, especially in category-based formats.
News: Atlanta guard Kyle Korver made all his field goals from beyond the arc on Monday night in a win at Detroit. Korver went 5 for 11 from the field with five 3-pointers as he scored 15 points for the Hawks. He grabbed one rebound and added two steals and an assist in the winning effort.
Analysis: Korver has nailed at least two 3-pointers in four straight games and is averaging almost three per game on the season for the Hawks. Korver can be considered a solid starting Fantasy option, especially in category-based formats because of his three-point shooting.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver came off the bench for Wednesday’s game against the Heat, but he still played a big role for the team. He played 26 minutes in the game, scoring 12 points on four made three-pointers. He also filled up the stat sheet well, snagging seven rebounds, three assists and two steals, in a 103-90 loss.
Analysis: Korver continues to play very well, as he is averaging 11.1 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.8 three-pointers per game in seven February contests. Korver has been rumored to be on the trading block, but for now he looks like a steady part of the Hawks rotation, averaging 30-plus minutes per game. Korver does not put up huge scoring numbers, but he has been steady, reaching double-figures in scoring in 14 of the last 15 games. At this point, Korver can be considered a solid starting Fantasy option, especially in category-based formats because of his three-point shooting.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver, who was listed as a game-time decision for Monday's contest at Dallas due to a sore shin, was able to play through his injury in the 105-101 win. Korver finished with 10 points on three of six shooting in the victory, including going 2 for 4 from downtown. He also added four rebounds and two assists to his stat line, while logging 30 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: While Korver's move back to the bench is related to his shin injury, Drew also made the move because he likes the way the speedy Devin Harris matches up against opposing two-guard O.J. Mayo. We would expect Korver to be back in the starting lineup moving forward unless his shin starts acting up again. However, with the Hawks only slated to play once more in the scoring period, owners may want to find an option who is not going to be limited this week. Korver has stepped up his production in Lou Williams' absence and is averaging a very productive 16 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.2 steals over his last 10 contests. He can be considered a viable start in the majority of formats when healthy.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver did not have one of his better shooting nights during Tuesday's contest against the Pacers. Korver, who had knocked down 58 percent of his shots over the previous 10 games, made just three of his 13 field-goal attempts in the 114-103 defeat. Two of his makes came from downtown as he finished with 10 points to go along with eight assists, one rebound, one block and a steal.
Analysis: The Hawks have been decimated with injuries of late, which has forced Korver to take on a larger role in the team's offense. The 31-year-old has shown he is more than capable of stepping up as he was averaging 17.3 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.3 steals over his previous seven games. He is also notching 39 minutes per game over that stretch and should continue to see heavy minutes moving forward. Korver is proving he can be more than just a 3-point specialist when given the opportunity, so continue to roll with him while he is trending upward.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver entered Wednesday's game against the Raptors shooting nearly 59 percent in his last eight games. He had another solid performance as he scored 17 points and hauled in six rebounds in the 93-92 win. Korver went 6 for 10 from the field and made 5 of 9 attempts from downtown while playing 37 minutes. Korver also posted three assists and two steals in the victory.
Analysis: Korver has been shooting the lights out for the Hawks of late and his scoring has increased his appeal in Fantasy. He is averaging 18.4 points with 5.2 rebounds and 1.6 steals in the previous five contests while shooting 59 percent from beyond the arc and 60 percent overall. The 31-year-old should come back down to earth eventually but owners in deeper formats should ride his hot hand for the time being.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver earned another start as he was red-hot from beyond the arc Friday night against the Celtics. Korver scored a team-high 27 points, including eight 3-pointers in a 123-111 double overtime victory. He went 6 of 13 shooting from the field, including 8 of 12 from downtown, and a perfect 3 of 3 from the charity stripe. He also chipped in with six rebounds, four assists, two blocked shots and three steals while logging 44 minutes of game action.
Analysis: Korver has seen nearly 40 minutes per game over his last five and is averaging 18.4 points and 4.8 rebounds over that span. He is also shooting 64.0 percent from the field, including 66.7 percent from downtown while averaging 4.8 3-pointers per game over that five-game stretch. Korver is starting to play a big role in this team whether at shooting guard or at small forward, so consider him a viable Fantasy option in deeper formats for now.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver played 38 minutes for the second game in a row Saturday against the Spurs, as he has seen his role grow due to Low Williams’ knee injury. Korver scored 19 points Saturday, on 7 of 12 shooting, with five made three-pointers. He added eight rebounds and an assist, in a 98-93 loss.
Analysis: Korver has been consistently playing around 30 minutes per game this season, but that could end up increasing further due to the Hawks’ injuries. He does little besides shoot three-pointers, as 72.9 percent of his made field-goals this season have come three-point range. Still, Korver is playing a big role for the Hawks, averaging double figures in scoring for the first time since leaving Philadelphia in 2008. Consider him a solid Fantasy option in deeper formats, moving forward.

Analysis: Korver is consistently seeing nearly 30 minutes per game, and his role has rarely changed while healthy this season. He is averaging 9.6 points per game over the last 10, on 42.5 percent shooting from the field. At this point, he remains a decent starting Fantasy option, in deeper category-based formats.
News: Hawks guard Kyle Korver turned in a productive performance as he was able to find his stroke from beyond the arc during Tuesday's contest against the Timberwolves. Korver scored 15 points on 5 of 11 shooting from the field, including 4 of 7 from downtown, and 1 of 2 from the charity stripe in a 108-103 defeat. He also chipped in with four rebounds and an assist while logging 31 minutes of game action.
Analysis: After scoring just 10.2 points per game in December, Korver has been able to get his scoring up as of late, as he has reached double-digit scoring in three of his first four games in January, averaging 12 points per game. He has also converted 14 of his first 31 shots from downtown to start the month. His main value in Fantasy is his ability to shoot well from the perimeter, so continue to roll with Korver in deeper category-based formats moving forward.

Korver also posted three rebounds and two assists in the victory.

He is averaging 10.4 points with 3.6 rebounds and 1.2 steals in the last five games while shooting 46 percent from beyond the arc over that span. His main value in Fantasy is his ability to shoot well from 3 point land so keep Korver active in deeper category-based formats at this point.

He has been a threat from the perimeter this season and was averaging 2.6 3-pointers per game before suffering an injury to his back and sitting out since the beginning of December. The sharp-shooter is averaging 10.7 points and 3.6 rebounds per game as well and does have value in deeper Fantasy formats now that he's back in action.

Analysis: Korver has been limited by a back injury of late and we are unsure if he would have practiced or played Wednesday if available.

News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver struggled with his shot on Wednesday against the Hawks, missing his last five shots en route to a 1 of 6, three-point game. However he does have an excuse, as all five of his missed came after he was forced to leave the game after an inadvertent elbow from Zaza Pachulia left him bloodied. He went to the locker room, got it taken care of and then came back for the fourth quarter, where he missed each of his five shots, however the Bulls still won handily, 98-77.
Analysis: Korver is allowed an off shooting night every now and then, as he remains a sharpshooter of the highest order, especially from three-point range. Unfortunately, Korver doesn’t take a lot of shots in the Bulls’ offense, as he is averaging just 8.0 points per game on the season, so Fantasy owners shouldn’t rely on him as anything more than a short-term fill-in in Rotisserie formats.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver continues to enjoy one of the best stretches of his season, as he has seen his role remain increased in recent games. On Saturday against the 76ers, Korver scored 11 points on 4 of 8 shooting, his third double-digit scoring game in the last five.
Analysis: Prior to this five-game stretch, Korver had gone seven games without reaching double figures, so he has clearly stepped up his game in an increased role.

He went 6 of 11 from downtown and also added seven rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal to his stat line, while logging 39 minutes of game action.
Analysis: Korver earned his fifth start of the season on Saturday and played like he deserved to be there. The 31-year-old's production has been a bit spotty this season, but he is finally starting to shoot the ball better. However, unless Korver earns himself a permanent spot in the starting lineup, he should only be owned in deeper Rotisserie formats due to his 3-point shooting.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver had a fine game shooting the ball on Friday, connecting on 3 of 6 from the field and 3 of 4 from three-point range to finish with nine points against the Cavs. He also added a rebound, two assists and two steals as the Bulls defeated the Cavs, 112-91.
Analysis: Since an 0-4 night two games before the All-Star break, Korver has found his stroke, making 54.5 percent of his shots from the field and 50.0 percent from three-point range.

Analysis: Korver is really struggling to make shots for the Bulls lately. He is shooting just 29 percent from the field over the past five games and 27 percent from downtown. While he continues to see around 20 minutes per game, owners should leave the 30-year-old on the bench until he starts knocking down some shots.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver had one of his better scoring performances of the year on Tuesday against the Kings. He matched his season high with 18 points in the 121-115 win.

Analysis: Korver has been seeing some addition run with Richard Hamilton still out and continues to put up the numbers owners are used to seeing from the 30-year-old. He is averaging 9.8 points with 2.2 rebounds and a steal in his last five contests, and is shooting nearly 46 percent from downtown over that span. His value lies mainly in category-based formats so as long as he is shooting well from 3-point land, consider Korver a viable option.

Analysis: The 30-year-old Korver has scored in double figures a few times over his last five games but is still averaging only 9.8 points per game over that span.

Analysis: Korver has scored in double figures in three of his last five games, and his connecting from downtown at a 45.7 percent clip. He's averaging 13.8 points and 4.2 rebounds over that span. The Bulls have Korver on the court in crunch time for his 3-point shooting and that's why he has Fantasy value in deeper category-based leagues. Continue to view him as a low-end guard in those formats.

Analysis: Korver has five 3-pointers in his last two games, but is averaging just 5.2 points per game over that span.

Analysis: Korver is ice-cold right now, as he is shooting just 23 percent from the field over his last five games. He is averaging just 3.2 points per game over that stretch and has not made a 3-pointer in four straight contests. While his track record suggests he should be able to snap out of his funk in no time, owners should wait for that to happen before getting him active again.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver put on a shooting display in Orlando on Friday night. He made 6 of his 8 field-goal attempts, the majority of them coming from beyond the 3-point arc. Korver converted 5 of his 7 shots from deep. He finished with a season-high 18 points and chipped in two boards, three steals and two assists. The Bulls would go on to beat the Magic, 97-83.
Analysis: Korver got plenty of playing time with C.J. Watson and Richard Hamilton both out with injuries. The Bulls have Korver for his 3-point shooting and that is why Fantasy owners have him on their rosters. His value isn't very high, but Korver is worth owning in deeper category-based Fantasy formats.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver did what he does on Friday, making two shots, both three pointers, as the Bulls won 114-101. He played in just 10 minutes and only attempted one from inside the arc, a long two pointer that he missed.
Analysis: Korver is not a player who offers much in the way of surprises. He’s a spot-up shooter who shoots a lot of three pointers, and that’s about it. In Rotisserie formats, he’s a decent low-end option if you need three pointers, but otherwise he has almost no Fantasy value.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver played his second and final preseason game on Tuesday night against the Pacers but did not have a great performance. He finished with zero points on 0 for 3 shooting in the 93-85 win. He missed both of his attempts from beyond the arc and hauled in just one rebound. Korver finished the preseason with four points on 2 for 6 shooting.
Analysis: Korver had a resurgent campaign in his first season with the Bulls a year ago but started to tail off towards the end, and completely disappeared in the playoffs. He role in Chicago is to come off the bench and shoot 3-pointers, which he has shown in the past that he is quite adept at. His stroke will come around eventually so keep an eye on his progress going forward. But given his limited contributions in Fantasy, target Korver in category-based formats on Draft Day.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver wasn't much of a factor in Thursday's win over the Nets, until the fourth quarter began. In the final period, he scored seven of his 12 points to help Chicago hold on after a New jersey rally. Korver shot 3 of 6 from the floor, hitting on 2 of 5 attempts from 3-point range. He also made good on all four of his free-throw attempts on the night during his 15 minutes of playing time on his 30th birthday.
Analysis: Korver has gone through some ups-and-downs this season, like most pure-shooters do, but his production is on the rise in March. He's shooting 48 percent from long-range in nine games this month, connecting on at least one shot from downtown in 29 of the last 30 games. Korver is also averaging his most points for a month since November. He won't fill up the stat sheet by any means, but he can contribute in category-based leagues as a decent Fantasy option.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver tuned in a solid performance off the bench in Saturday's 83-75 win over the Bucks. Korver scored 11 points in the victory on 5 of 11 shooting from the field. He went just 1 of 4 from behind the arc, but did add four rebounds to his statline in 19 minutes off the bench. Korver has scored in double figures just twice over his last seven games.
Analysis: Korver didn't have his best shooting night against the Clippers -- especially from deep -- but still manged to score in double figures. As a matter of fact Korver's shooting numbers are way down this season, although his minutes and scoring numbers are up. Still, his main value to Fantasy owners lies in his ability to shoot the 3-ball. As long as he continues to fire away from downtown, Korver will be a useful option in deeper category-based formats. Continue to view him as such heading into Fantasy Week 19 (Feb. 28-March 6).
News: Bull guard Kyle Korver has improved his 3-point percentage to 42.4 on 184 attempts this year. Korver has been playing well enough to garner some high praise from his coach. "He has complemented Carlos (Boozer) and Derrick (Rose) very, very well," coach Tom Thibodeau told The Chicago Tribune. "In today's NBA, the way the rules are, you have to have shooting on the floor. Even (when) he doesn't shoot great, they're not leaving him and he's creating space for us. And he's unselfish. Anytime you run catch-and-shoot for him, they usually blitz it … and he will hit the open man."
Analysis: Korver made all three of his 3-pointers in Tuesday's 106-94 win over the Bobcats as he went on to shoot a perfect 5-for-5 from the floor. "We had great ball movement," Korver said. Over his last 10 outings, Korver is averaging 9.9 points, 2.4 boards and 1.5 assists a game. While he doesn't always light up the stat sheet, Korver does have Fantasy value. Owners in the deepest of category-based Fantasy leagues should consider Korver a viable option based on his 3-point shooting.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver nailed all five of his field goals in Tuesday's 106-94 win over the Bobcats. Three of those shots came from beyond the 3-point arc, as Korver finished with 15 points. He also made both his shots from the charity stripe. He added two boards, but would be limited to just 15 minutes as he had five fouls. Korver was one of five Chicago players that reached double figures.
Analysis: Korver entered Tuesday averaging 9.3 points, 1.6 assists and 2.3 boards per contest over his last 10 games. He's scored in double digits in three of his last five games for the Bulls, as he's been giving them solid production off the bench. At this stage of the season, Korver is a viable option in the deepest of category-based Fantasy leagues. He's a nice asset to have for his 3-point shooting, but can't be depended on to post solid numbers on a nightly basis.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver totaled 14 points and six rebounds in the Bulls' 109-103 loss to Portland on Monday night. Korver finished a near-perfect 3 for 4 from beyond the 3-point arc and 5 for 7 overall to score in double figures for the second game in a row. Korver played 24 minutes -- his highest total in the last six games -- and finished with his best shooting percentage (71.4) of the season when attempting more than five shots.
Analysis: Korver's solid game came in front of his old college and current Oregon coach Dana Altman, who guided Korver at Creighton. Altman was on hand to see another fine performance by Korver from 3-point range. The veteran shooting guard nailed three treys for the second game in a row and is now 8 for 17 in his last three outings. He still has limited Fantasy value and should be utilized only in category-based and deeper formats.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver scored 16 points in the Bulls' 110-89 victory over Indiana on Saturday night. Korver effectively found shots within his range throughout the game and made 6 of 11 attempts from the field, including 1 of 3 from 3-point range. He logged 21 minutes -- second-most among Chicago's bench players -- and added two assists and a rebound.
Analysis: Korver's solid outing halted a stretch of sub-par performances from the veteran as he netted 50 percent of his shots for the first time in four games. His scoring has taken a dip as his playing time has decreased and is now averaging just 8.1 points per game. Despite his highest-scoring total in his last six games, Korver remains a low-end Fantasy option and should only be considered in deeper leagues.
News: Bulls Kyle Korver continues to provide spotty scoring for the Bulls. He shot 6 of 10 from beyond the arc in Monday's game at Memphis, allowing him to score 22 points in 26 minutes off the bench. Korver scored all 14 of his first-half points in the second quarter, sinking 4 of 5 from behind the arc. "I felt good the last week or so shooting the ball in practice, just haven't gotten good looks in the games," Korver said. "Sometimes, you just have to see the ball go in." Korver had scored a combined 21 points over his previous four appearances.
Analysis: Korver has a great 3-point stroke, but his shot volume has not been very high this season outside of the occasional hot shooting night. Despite Monday's effort, he remains too spotty to trust in most Fantasy formats barring some sort of a string of these games.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver did not see a ton of minutes on Saturday night against the Heat, but he came through when it counted. He hit a crucial 3-pointer with 25 seconds left in the game and finished with seven points in the 99-96 win. Derrick Rose missed from inside but after a missed tip, Korver came up with the loose ball and sank his 3-pointer to put Chicago ahead for good. "At first I thought I had to get back on D, but there was a loose ball and I went after it," Korver said. "Everyone else was flying the other way. The ball came to me and I was wide open." Korver went 3 of 6 from the field, including 1 for 4 from downtown, while playing 14 minutes off the bench. He also had three rebounds, two assists and two steals in the victory.
Analysis: Korver's playing time has been sporadic this season and he does not offer much other than his 3-point shooting. He is averaging just 4.2 points with 1.6 rebounds and 1.6 assists over his last five contests, while shooting nearly 37 percent from the field and 28 percent from beyond the arc over that span. He has seen an average of nearly 21 minutes per game this season, but he mainly only helps Fantasy owners in Rotisserie formats. Continue to view Korver as a low-end Fantasy option going forward.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver netted four points and had two assists in the Bulls' 105-99 loss at Philadelphia on Friday night. Korver connected on 2 of 3 from the field to finish with fewer than three field goals in his fourth consecutive game. The backup shooting guard added a steal in his 16 minutes of work, his lowest output in his last six games.
Analysis: Korver's Fantasy value has certainly taken a hit since the beginning of the season. The eighth-year guard was averaging nearly 10 points per game but has seen that total dip with his ninth game in a row scoring in single digits. His 8.4 points per game and marginal contributions elsewhere make him a low-end Fantasy option only in deeper leagues.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver was in double figures with 10 points Tuesday in a win over Philadelphia. The Bulls could hardly miss in the game and Korver was no exception. He went 4 for 4 from the field and 2 for 2 from 3-point range over 18 minutes on the court. Korver added two assists and a rebound.
Analysis: The Bulls give Korver anywhere from 15-25 minutes of run per game and he's good for almost 10 points and at least a 3-pointer. That said, he does little else and really only has low-end Fantasy value.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver has been doing what the Bulls signed him for -- hit 3-pointers. Korver scored 13 points on Wednesday night against Toronto. He hit 3 of his 7 attempts from downtown. Korver also dished out six assists and made a steal in his 21 minutes of court time. His efforts helped the Bulls beat the Raptors, 110-93.
Analysis: Korver doesn't put up huge numbers, but he's averaging 11.0 points, 1.8 assists and 1.4 rebounds over his last five games. He's also hitting almost two 3-pointers per contest over that span. Fantasy owners should keep viewing Korver as decent start in the deepest of category-based leagues. He's a good source of 3-pointers and will chip in where he can -- but can't be depended on too heavily.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver has been struggling from downtown recently -- going 7 for 22 over his last five games. His best outing was on Friday night against the Lakers as he hit 3 of his 6 shots from beyond the arc. He would finish with 13 points on an overall 4-for-11 shooting performance. He added two foul shots, a rebound, a block and three steals in his 24 minutes on the court.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 11.0 points and 2.4 boards over his last five games for the Bulls. He's scored in double figures in four straight games. Korver has struggled in his first season with the Bulls, and isn't really living up to his standards of being a reliable threat from downtown. If he can start to heat up, Korver will be worth using in more category-based Fantasy leagues. Until then he's only worth using in the deepest of formats.
News: Bulls F Kyle Korver entered Saturday's game against the Rockets shooting 44 percent on the season from 3-point land. He did not help his cause as he went just 1 for 7 from beyond the arc in the 119-116 overtime win. Korver, who played 29 minutes, finished the night with 13 points on 5 off 11 shooting, and went a perfect 2 for 2 from the foul line. He also chipped in with three rebounds in the victory.
Analysis: Korver shot an amazing 53.6 percent from downtown last season but has not had the same success so far in his first year with the Bulls. He has been seeing plenty of playing time, 24 minutes per game, but his main asset to Fantasy owners is his long-range shot. He should be able to see more open looks when Carlos Boozer gets back to 100 percent so continue to hold onto the 29-year-old in deeper leagues. Consider Korver a low-end Fantasy option heading into Week 7 (Dec. 6-12).
News: The Bulls gave guard Kyle Korver 30 minutes off the bench on Wednesday during a blowout loss to the Orlando Magic. Korver shot 2 of 5 from the field and went 1 for 1 from deep to score six points. He added one rebound, two assists, one steal and a block.
Analysis: Korver scored 24 points over 47 minutes on Nov. 24 at Phoenix. He hasn't combined to score that in his next three games. He could be good for a 3-pointer here and there but Korver really only has low-end Fantasy value.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver scored a season-high 24 points in Wednesday's double-overtime win over the Suns. He shot 8 for 14 -- hitting 3 of his 7 3-point attempts -- and going 5 for 6 from the charity stripe. He added five rebounds, three assists, a steal and a block in his 47 minutes of court time. The Bulls would prevail 123-115 over the Suns.
Analysis: This performance follows a 2-point outing he had in his last game. Over his last five games Korver is averaging 12.0 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game. Granted his 24 points is good, but not every game goes into double-overtime, so it's unlikely he'll be able to continue to put up that kind of production. He gets a good amount of playing time off the bench and is shooting a high percentage from the field and downtown through 13 games. Fantasy owners should keep him active in the deepest of category-based leagues as he is a good source of 3-pointers and shoots high percentages.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver had 10 points off the bench in Tuesday's 95-92 win over the Rockets. Korver, was ruled a game-time decision with a bone bruise, logged 26 minutes in the win and was 3 of 4 from the field. Me made both of his 3-point attempts and also chipped in with six rebounds, four assists and three steals.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 7.8 points over his last five games while logging 19.8 minutes off the bench over that stretch. He is an excellent source for 3-pointers, but unfortunately doesn't offer much else in Fantasy. Korver should only be used in deeper category-based leagues at this point.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver (knee) will play in Tuesday's game against the Rockets, reports the Chicago Tribune . Korver, who has been dealing with a bone bruise, was originally ruled a game-time decision. He did not travel with the team to Houston, but arrived on his own earlier in the day.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 8.1 points this season while logging about 19 minutes a game off the bench. He is an excellent source for 3-pointers, but unfortunately doesn't offer much else in Fantasy. Korver should only be used in deeper category-based leagues at this point.
News: Bulls SG Kyle Korver, who didn't travel with the team to Houston because of a sore right knee, arrived on his own and is a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against the Rockets.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 9.4 points over his last five games, but he doesn't offer much in Fantasy other than 3-point shooting. You can leave him for deeper categorical leagues.
News: The Chicago Sun-Times reports that Bulls G Kyle Korver did not practice on Monday due to a sore rigt knee. He left the team's practice early to have an MRI and to be examined by a team doctor. Whether or not Korver will be able to travel with the team to Houston was uncertain after practice. He may be on the plane," coach Tom Thibodeau said. "If not, we'll put him on another plane tonight."
Analysis: Korver is averaging 9.4 points over his last five games and remains merely a one-category player for deep Rotisserie formats for his help in 3-point shooting. Otherwise, he should be reserved in all formats.
News: Bulls guard Kyle Korver continued his hot shooting in Saturday's 103-96 win over the Wizards. Korver scored eight points in 20 minutes off the bench and was 3 of 6 from the field in the loss. He went 2 of 4 from behind the arc and also chipped in with a pair of assists and rebounds in the loss.
Analysis: Korver has struggled with his shot at times this season, but seems to have gotten things back on track. He he shooting 55 percent from the field over his last five games and 59 percent from behind the arc over that stretch. While Korver is an excellent source for 3-pointers, he doesn't offer much else in the form of stats, which limits his Fantasy value. The Bulls face the Rockets, Spurs and Mavericks during Week 4 (Nov. 15-21), however, Korver should only be starting in deeper leagues at this point.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver had his best game of the young season on Thursday night against the Knicks. He scored 18 points on 7 of 10 shooting while playing 21 minutes coming off the bench. He went 4 for 6 from downtown and finishing tied for second in scoring on Chicago in the 120-112 loss. Korver also had two rebounds and two assists.
Analysis: Korver has not been shooting all that well so far this season but he had his stroke working on Thursday night. He was brought to Chicago to hit open threes for the Bulls and will be a great weapon once Carlos Boozer returns from injury. Unfortunately, the 29-year-old does not offer much else in the form of stats. He has low-end value at this point and should be ignored in the majority of formats as the Bulls play Denver, Golden State, and Washington in Week 3.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver registered 11 points off the bench over 22 minutes on Monday in a big win over Portland. Korver nailed one 3-pointer and shot 4 of 7 overall. He also dished out four assists.
Analysis: Korver scored seven points combined in his first two games spanning 37 minutes. If he's not going to get a couple threes per game, he really only has low-end Fantasy value.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver had been dealing with a sore ankle, but managed to log 24 minutes in the preseason finale against Indiana. Korver shot 3 for 10 from the field -- 1 for 5 from downtown -- grabbed three rebounds and dished out five assists. He even blocked a shot for the Bulls.
Analysis: Korver entered Friday averaging 10 points per contest during the preseason for Chicago. The Bulls plan on using Korver off the bench, but he should be able to see plenty of action. He has the ability to score double-digits off the bench and shoots a high percentage from downtown and the foul line. He isn't a player to target on Draft Day, but could be worth picking up off waivers as the season gets going.
News: Bulls SG Kyle Korver worked out by himself Thursday and reported no pain in his left ankle, according to the Chicago Tribune. He hadn't been able to practice since Monday because of soreness in the ankle.
Analysis: The Bulls have one more preseason game Friday against the Pacers, so Korver still has a chance to tune up before the regular season. He won't begin the season as the starter, but he should get plenty of minutes off the bench, frequently scoring in double figures and hitting plenty of threes. He can remain on waivers in Fantasy for now, but he could make an impact before season's end.
News: Chicago guard Kyle Korver has a cyst in his left ankle and could not practice on Monday. He received a cortisone shot. Korver should be considered day to day, according to the Chicago Tribune.
Analysis: Korver played in Saturday's preseason game and did not score over 21 minutes on 0 for 4 shooting. He's averaging 10 points per game in the preseason over 22 minutes but hasn't topped six in his last three. While this injury isn't considered serious, Korver is mostly a waiver-wire player and should not really be targeted on Draft Day.
News: Bulls G Kyle Korver played just over 26 minutes against the Mavericks on Thursday night, going 3 of 8 from the field -- including 1 of 3 from the 3-point line-- and scoring 10 points in the 88-83. Loss. He made all three of his free-throw attempts and chipped in with an assist and three rebounds in the defeat.
Analysis: Korver was brought over from the Jazz in the offseason to help bring consistent shooting to a team that was lacking in that department a year ago. The career 41-percent 3-point shooter set an NBA record by converting 53.6 percent last season and will see plenty of opportunities off the bench for the Bulls this season. While his game is pretty limited to just shooting, the 29-year-old will be able to complement Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah well. Korver is a useful late-round pick in Rotisserie leagues for his help in threes and free-throw shooting, but is likely to be waiver wire fodder in most head-to-head leagues.
News:Kyle Korver agreed to leave the Utah Jazz and follow teammate Carlos Boozer to Chicago for a reported three-year, $15 million deal, giving the Bulls the shooter they needed. It didn't take him long to raise a few eyebrows at his introductory news conference on Tuesday. He said he thought Jordan was "selfish," and he "hated" the Bulls growing up in Los Angeles and then Iowa. That changed over time, and now, he thinks Chicago "is the best fit for me."
Analysis: Korver gives Chicago much-needed help on the perimeter after the Bulls shot 33 percent on 3-pointers and ranked 28th overall last season. A career 41-percent 3-point shooter, he set an NBA record by converting 53.6 percent last season and broke former Bull Steve Kerr's mark of 52.4 in 1994-95 after undergoing wrist surgery. His best asset is in category-based leagues as a three-point shooter and Fantasy owners in category leagues should continue to seek him out for help in that area.
News: The Salt Lake Tribune reports Jazz forward Kyle Korver is heading into free agency this summer, but he wouldn't be opposed to a return to Utah. "I've really enjoyed my time here," Korver said. "Obviously, it's a great team, a great system. I feel like I fit in well here in a lot of ways. So I'm very open to coming back. I want to hear what they have to say for sure. At the same time, this is the first time in eight years that I get to pick where I get to play. You look and you see what's out there and you try and make the best decision for yourself personally and as a player."
Analysis: Korver is known for his outside shooting, and there's no telling what the market will be for a player in Korver who made 53.6 percent of his three-point attempts this season. Korver averaged 7.2 points in 18.3 minutes a game as a reserve. Keep an eye on where he ends up, but he has minimal Fantasy value in head-to-head formats. His best asset is in category-based leagues as a three-point shooter.
News: Jazz G Kyle Korver averaged 8.3 points in nine playoff games for Utah. His best performance came in Game 3 against the Lakers in the Western Conference semifinals, scoring 23 points on 9 of 10 shooting from the field.
Analysis: Korver's playoff run was a microcosm of what Fantasy owners should expect from him. He is an excellent spot-up shooter with the ability to get hot and go for 15-20 points on any given night, but in between those games will be a lot of pedestrian efforts. Korver has some value in leagues that reward his three-point shooting, but it is mainly only as a stopgap.
News: Jazz forward Kyle Korver scored a season-high 21 points Wednesday night against Golden State. He also added four rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block. Korver also made three three-pointers.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 10.4 points, 3.8 rebounds and 2.0 assists in his past five games with seven three-pointers over that span. He's a streaky shooter, but Korver is a good source of three-pointers in category-based leagues.
News: Jazz G Kyle Korver had just four points in Monday's game against the Knicks, despite playing 32 minutes off the bench. He has scored in double figures just twice in his last five games.
Analysis: Korver has gotten decent playing time off Utah's bench, but he has not turned that into much production. He is not a viable Fantasy option and should be left off active Fantasy rosters despite his history of being a good three-point shooter.
News: Utah guard Kyle Korver is playing 23.4 minutes per game over his last five contests and has gone 7 for 12 from 3-point range over that span to average 11.6 points per night. His best game yet came on Wednesday in a win over Minnesota. Korver shot 7 for 9 overall in that game with three 3-pointers and scored 20 points.
Analysis: Korver has been shooting the lights out of late and has become viable in deeper Fantasy leagues again if he can continue shooting this well from long range.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver had a good shooting night off the bench for the Jazz in the win at Detroit on Wednesday. The sharp shooter went 6 of 8 from the field and 2 for 3 from 3-point range to score 14 points in 24 minutes. He added seven rebounds and four assists.
Analysis: The seven boards and four assists were odd for Korver, who is normally just in the ballgame to shoot. He's been scoring more of late and has hit just under two 3-pointers per night over his last five games. Still, his value lies in the deepest of Fantasy leagues.
News: Jazz G Kyle Korver chipped in 16 points in 21 minutes off the bench Monday night at the Clippers. He was 3 of 6 from beyond the arc. He has scored 13 or more points in three of his last five games.
Analysis: Korver is a bit of a sleeper off the waiver wire for Fantasy owners in deeper leagues. He is playing around 25 minutes per game and is still a solid three-point shooter. Think about taking a chance on him off the waiver wire if you need a fill-in for deeper leagues.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver continues to produce now that he's playing extra minutes. In 30 minutes against the Bobcats on Wednesday, he finished with 18 points, four rebounds and three assists. He shot 6 of 11 from the field, including 5 of 6 from 3-point range.
Analysis: Korver's minutes are up since Ronnie Brewer was traded last week -- 28.3 a game -- and he's making the most of it. In those four games he's averaging 11.0 points, 5.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists. If he continues to produce he could become a No. 4 Fantasy guard.
News: Utah G Kyle Korver scored 13 points in a loss to the Hawks on Monday. Korver played 29 minutes, shooting 4 of 9 from the field hwile adding five rebounds, two assists and three steals. It was the first time in his last four games that Korver has scored in double figures.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 8.6 points per game over his last five contests while bringing in two assists and 3.6 boards. While he shows the ability to score in double figures every once in a while, Korver is best left for only the deepest of Fantasy leagues.
News: According to the Deseret News, Utah G Kyle Korver ended up with his first DNP-CD (did not play- coaches decision) on Wednesday since his rookie year. "We're winning games, and my knee's still getting better," he said. "If you don't play in a game, you have a harder workout the next day. So I'm just trying to get it stronger." "When I come back, I plan to be 100 percent and be able to really go," Korver said Wednesday. "The pain is gone. It's just getting strength back in it. The last three or four days it's really gotten better, so it's good.
Analysis: Before his DNP, Korver averaged 13.4 minutes and seven points, while hitting 18-of-28 3-pointers, since returning on Jan. 4 after a hit-and-miss December comeback bid. He has low-end Fantasy value for now.
News: Utah guard Kyle Korver nailed all four threes he attempted on Wednesday during a win at Portland. Korver shot 5 of 7 overall over 17 minutes on the court to score 16 points.
Analysis: Korver provided instant offense and big three-point shooting on Wednesday. Unfortunately for Fantasy owners, that is all you can ever really expect from him, at best. He has just low-end Fantasy value.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver returned to action on Monday against the Hornets after missing three games because of a knee injury. Korver had no points in six minutes and missed his only field-goal attempt. He also had an assist.
Analysis: Korver hasn't played much since having offseason knee surgery, and when he has gotten into the lineup, he has since limited minutes off the bench. He is even getting time to rest his knee, if he is feeling soreness. Korver has a long road back to becoming a Fantasy viable player, so keep him off your roster until further notice.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver (knee) did not play on Saturday against the Nuggets as he continues to recover from offseason knee surgery. He is questionable for Monday's game against New Orleans.
Analysis: Korver is not much of a threat in Fantasy at this point in his career. He was once a solid contributor with his solid three-point shooting, but those days seem to have past. He should not be active in any format at this point.
News: Jazz swingman Kyle Korver missed Wednesday's game against Minnesota and will also sit out Thursday's game against Oklahoma City because of continuing pain in his surgically repaired left knee.
Analysis: Korver is not much of a threat in Fantasy at this point in his career. He was once a solid contributor with his solid three-point shooting, but those days seem to have past. He should not be active in any format at this point.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver was able to play again on Saturday against the Sixers. Korver, who is still not fully recovered from offseason knee surgery, played only three minutes and scored three points.
Analysis: Korver is not much of a threat in Fantasy at this point in his career. He was once a solid contributor with his solid three-point shooting, but those days seem to have past. He should not be active in any format at this point.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver (knee) is still out for Wednesday at Miami, according to the team's official media notes. Korver recently returned from left knee surgery but the knee has bothered him and he's since returned to the inactive list.
Analysis: Korver has said that he feels his knee is not 100 percent recovered and he could be forced to miss some more time. Obviously, he is not a player worth owning in most Fantasy leagues at this time. His days as a contributor in three-point shooting categories seem distant.
News: The Jazz deactivated Jazz G Kyle Korver (knee) for Monday's game in Orlando. Kosta Koufas was activated in his place. Korver is considered day to day.

News: Utah Jazz swingman Kyle Korver has had more complications with his surgically repaired left knee. Korver was limited to two scoreless minutes in the first half against Charlotte on Saturday before the team determined he was finished for the night. A Jazz spokesman said Korver had been testing knee braces before the game because of discomfort.
Analysis: Korver played a season-high 15 minutes a night earlier in a loss at Atlanta. Saturday marked the 6-foot-7 Korver's fourth game back from the surgery on Oct. 23. At the moment he has very minimal Fantasy appeal.
News: Jazz F/G Kyle Korver made his season debut Monday against the Timberwolves after missing the first 23 games because of knee surgery. He went scoreless in 13 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: Korver will occasionally score in double figures and will hit a few threes, but his production will be too inconsistent for him to matter in most Fantasy formats. Leave him on waivers in standard leagues.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver remained out on Saturday against the Lakers as he continues to recover from offseason knee surgery. He is questionable for Monday against Minnesota.
Analysis: Korver will contribute a few threes off the bench, but he probably won't have a big enough role in the Jazz rotation to make an impact in Fantasy when he returns. Leave him on waivers and don't have him active for Fantasy Week 8 (Dec. 14-20).
News: The Salt Lake Tribune is reporting that there is a strong indication that the Jazz could have 12 players in uniform for Saturday's game against the Lakers. That would include Kyle Korver.
Analysis: Korver will contribute a few threes off the bench, but he probably won't have a big enough role in the Jazz rotation to make an impact in Fantasy. Leave him on waivers.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver missed another game Thursday against the Magic as he recovers from offseason knee surgery. He has yet to play this season.
Analysis: Korver will contribute a few threes off the bench, but he probably won't have a big enough role in the Jazz rotation to make an impact in Fantasy. Leave him on waivers.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver (knee) was not able to return to action Wednesday at the Lakers and is listed as 'out' on the team's injury report for Thursday's game against Orlando.
Analysis: Korver has not played a game this season and his appeal in Fantasy leagues is virtually nonexistent. Korver will contribute a few threes off the bench, but he probably won't have a big enough role in the Jazz rotation to make an impact in Fantasy. Leave him on waivers.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver remained sidelined Monday against the Spurs. He has yet to play a game this season, but he could return any day now.
Analysis: Korver will contribute a few threes off the bench, but he probably won't have a big enough role in the Jazz rotation to make an impact in Fantasy. Leave him on waivers.
News: Jazz G Kyle Korver (knee) was held out of Saturday's game against Minnesota. He was a game-time decision for both Friday and Saturday's games and is considered day to day.
Analysis: Korver has yet to play this season. He has been a good three-point shooter throughout his career, but he'll likely take a while to find a niche in the Utah rotation following such a long absence. He is a player to monitor, but is not someone worth activating in Fantasy yet.
News: The Jazz listed Kyle Korver (knee) as a game-time decision for Friday's game against Indiana. Korver did not play, however, and has yet to play this season. He is questionable for Saturday's game at Minnesota.
Analysis: Korver has been a good three-point shooter throughout his career, but he'll likely take a while to find a niche in the Utah rotation following such a long absence. He is a player to monitor, but is not someone worth activating in Fantasy yet.

News:The Deseret News reports that Kyle Korver (knee) has had his return put on hold. The Jazz shooting guard suggested Thursday he's had a setback in his rehab from arthroscopic knee surgery, and it will be more than a week before he's ready to return.
Analysis: Korver cited poor results on a Cybex test, which judges strength in the joint. He thinks some of the strength in his upper leg was lost before he had surgery, when swelling in the knee and uncertainty over the precise nature of his injury kept him from working out as usual. Korver has missed all 15 games this season for the Jazz and he'll have to prove both healthy and productive before he is recommended in Fantasy play.
News: The Deseret News reports that Kyle Korver will continue to rehab in Utah until being reevaluated on his recent surgery when the team travels to New York on Nov. 9.
Analysis: Korver played in just one preseason game because the knee was bothering him. He averaged nine points and 3.3 rebounds in 78 games for the Jazz last season. He has some low-end scoring ability in Fantasy, but you have to figure he'll miss a few weeks following surgery. You can leave him on waivers.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver is recovering from surgery to remove a bone spur in his left knee. General manager Kevin O'Connor says Korver had the surgery in New York on Wednesday, when the rest of the Jazz were in Denver for the season opener at the Nuggets. Korver will return to Salt Lake City for rehabilitation and is scheduled to have the knee re-examined Nov. 9.

News: The Utah Jazz say forward Kyle Korver will have surgery on his left knee and will miss the beginning of the regular season. The team says Dr. David Altcheck in New York City will perform the surgery on Tuesday. Korver has been bothered by inflammation in his left knee. He has appeared in just one preseason game. He had two points and three rebounds against Real Madrid on Oct. 8.
Analysis: Last season Korver appeared in 78 games for the Jazz, averaging 9.0 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.8 assists. He made a team-high 103 3-pointers last season. The team plans to provide an update on Korver following the procedure. Do not expect to rely on him for the first month of the season. He'll have to prove healthy and productive before he becomes a recommended option, something that seems like a long ways away at this stage.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver missed Thursday's preseason game against the Blazers because of inflammation in his left knee. He's day to day.
Analysis: Korver is a good scorer and 3-point shooter off the bench, but his sometimes spotty playing time and inability to contribute in other categories make him not worth drafting in most Fantasy leagues.
News:Kyle Korver told the Jazz on Monday that he will not opt out of the final year of his contract, taking the guaranteed money over becoming a free agent. "We are thrilled to have Kyle remain with the Jazz," general manager Kevin O'Connor said in a release Monday.
Analysis: Korver averaged nine points per game last season, giving the Jazz an outside shooting threat off the bench. He shot 44 percent from the field and 38.6 from 3-point range. He has one year remaining on the contract the Jazz took off Philadelphia's hands in a trade midway through the 2007-08 season. He had surgery to remove scar tissue from his right wrist, but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp. He'll be a worthy draft choice in category-based play for his help from beyond the arc, but will be waiver wire fodder in most standard formats.
News: Jazz forward Kyle Korver has had surgery to remove scar tissue from his right wrist. Jazz general manager Kevin O'Connor says Korver had the operation Monday in New York. The wrist will be re-examined in two weeks.
Analysis: Korver averaged nine points in 78 games last season. He has one year remaining on his contract, but can opt out of the deal before June 30 and become a free agent. He is worth using in deeper formats when he is able to heat up from downtown.
News: Utah guard Kyle Korver had 12 points and one assist in 31 minutes off the bench Tuesday at Portland. He has now scored 28 points in his past two games.
Analysis: Korver is a good source of points in deeper leagues and a good three-point shooter. He is worth using in deeper formats when he's playing like this.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver scored 15 points on Monday night in a win over the Knicks. Korver shot 4-of-6 from the field with a three. He added four rebounds and three assists.
Analysis: Korver is averaging 10 points per game of late but that comes with few other stats but threes. Korver is a good source of points in deeper leagues and a good three-point shooter. He is worth using in deeper formats when he's playing like this.
News: Utah guard Kyle Korver had 15 points, four assists and one rebound Wednesday at Phoenix. This was Korver's fourth game in double figures in his past six outings. He is averaging 11.0 points in his past five games.
Analysis: Korver is a good source of points in deeper leagues and a good three-point shooter. He is worth using in deeper formats when he's playing like this.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver scored 25 points with seven rebounds and six assists in 48 minutes off the bench during Saturday's double overtime game in Miami. It was just the third time this season he has cracked the 20-point mark.
Analysis: Korver hit four threes in the game and was the hot hand early in the game. Korver has hit 20 points in two of his last four games, but had just 14 points combined in his last two games. Fantasy owners should expect him to be erratic in his role off the bench, but he has some appeal as a stopgap in deeper leagues -- especially those that reward threes.
News: Jazz G Kyle Korver had 20 points with eight rebounds and two assists off the bench in Sunday's game in Toronto. He played 33 minutes. Korver had scored a combined nine points in his previous two games.
Analysis: Korver's 3-point shooting has dipped in the last two seasons and he is no longer hitting from 40 percent from beyond the arc. That has been a big reason why his scoring has also dipped since 2007-08. Korver has very limited Fantasy appeal despite this fluky performance.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver drained 16 points in 28 minutes off the bench Monday against the Hawks. Korver was 6-of-9 from the field, including 4-of-5 from 3-point range. He also had six rebounds and one assist. Korver hit double figures for the first time in six games.
Analysis: Korver's 3-point shooting has dipped in the last two seasons and he is no longer hitting from 40 percent from beyond the arc. That has been a big reason why his scoring has also dipped since 2007-08. Korver has very limited Fantasy appeal.
News: Utah guard Kyle Korver scored a season-high 20 points in his first start of the season Thursday against Dallas. Korver also added nine rebounds and an assist and was in the starting lineup with C.J. Miles (illness) out.
Analysis: If Miles remains out, along with Andrei Kirilenko, Korver would have increased Fantasy value. Keep an eye on what happens, but Korver could be worth adding in deep leagues if he continues to play like this.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver had nine points with eight rebounds and three assists in Monday's game against Charlotte. He is averaging 6.6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists over his last five games.
Analysis: Korver has not seen a huge increase in production since the injury to Andrei Kirilenko, but Fantasy owners should expect more games like Monday's for the next two weeks while AK-47 remains out.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver scored 15 points on Saturday in a loss to Cleveland. Korver, who missed all five threes he took in the Jazz' previous game at Houston, was 2-of-5 from deep and 6-of-11 from the field. He added five rebounds and two blocks.
Analysis: Korver is, interestingly enough, contributing intangibles lately. He's averaging one steal, one block, three boards and two assists per game over his last five to go with nine points and a three. That makes him more than worth using in deeper leagues at this time. He'll shoot poorly now and again but he's doing enough to warrant use in leagues like 30-team formats.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver came off the bench for 33 minutes on Wednesday in a loss at Oklahoma City. Korver shot 5-of-14 from the field and hit 2-of-6 threes for 14 points. He added four rebounds and two assists with two blocks and a steal.
Analysis: This was one of the most complete games you'll ever see Korver play for the Jazz. He scored, rebounded and even blocked shots and played 33 minutes. Don't expect that to continue as Korver just isn't recommended in Fantasy play.
News: Jazz G Kyle Korver went 1-for-4 from the field on Friday, scoring four points and failing to hit a triple in the game. He had put up back-to-back double-digit performances coming into the game.
Analysis: Korver remains just a three-point specialist for the most part and has limited appeal beyond that. He's not a recommended start in Fantasy play.
News: Utah SG Kyle Korver had his best game in a while on Saturday night against the Magic. Korver scored 15 points and hit 3-for-4 threes. He did little else of Fantasy significance.
Analysis: Korver doesn't often score in double figures. He's a three-point specialist but he doesn't drop too many threes per game. He's at best a low-end Fantasy option.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver returned to the lineup Friday against the Kings after missing four games with a sprained wrist. He had 12 points in 25 minutes off the bench. Korver also chipped in with two rebounds and two assists.
Analysis: Korver plays more than 20 minutes per game when healthy, but he is pretty much just a sharp shooter for Utah. So if he is not hitting from downtown, he won't have nice stat lines on a nightly basis. He's at best a low-end Fantasy option when healthy.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver (wrist) is expected to play Friday night against Sacramento, according to the Deseret News. Korver has been out with a sprained right shooting wrist.
Analysis: Korver has averaged 20 minutes per game this season but has contributing just 7.2 points per contest. Korver is a cheap source of threes, but he's just 12-for-27 on the year from downtown. He's at best a low-end Fantasy option when healthy.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver remained out of the lineup Wednesday against the Grizzlies because of an inflamed right wrist. He has missed four straight games with the injury.
Analysis: Korver has averaged 20 minutes per game this season but has contributing just 7.2 points per contest. Korver is a cheap source of threes, but he's just 12-for-27 on the year from downtown. He's at best a low-end Fantasy option when healthy.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver remained out of the lineup Monday against the Bulls because of an inflamed right wrist. He has missed three straight games with the injury.
Analysis: Korver has averaged 20 minutes per game this season but has contributing just 7.2 points per contest. Korver is a cheap source of threes, but he's just 12-for-27 on the year from downtown. He's at best a low-end Fantasy option when healthy.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver was unable to play Saturday against the Grizzlies because of an inflamed right wrist. He is day-to-day and questionable for Monday against the Bulls.
Analysis: Korver has been averaging 20 minutes per game this season, but is contributing just 7.2 points per contest. Korver is a cheap source of threes but he's just 12-for-27 on the year from downtown. Korver is at best a low-end Fantasy option when healthy.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver was unable to play Friday against the Spurs because of an inflamed right wrist. He is day-to-day and questionable for Saturday against Memphis.
Analysis: Korver has been averaging 20 minutes per game this season, but is contributing just 7.2 points per contest. Korver is a cheap source of threes but he's just 12-for-27 on the year from downtown. Korver is at best a low-end Fantasy option when healthy.
News: Jazz SG Kyle Korver got 18 minutes off the bench on Tuesday against Philadelphia and scored three points. He was 1-of-7 from the field and made just one of five threes. He did little else in the game.
Analysis: Korver is a cheap source of threes but he's just 5-for-15 on the year from downtown. His scoring average is as low as it has been for almost his entire career and he's not a recommended Fantasy option right now.
News: The Jazz are one of the two-game teams this week, but the two matchups come against sub-par defensive teams. The Nuggets gave up the second most points in the league last season and the Clippers gave up 101.1 points themselves. But the Jazz will be without their point guard for at least the first week, meaning they will have to cope with Ronnie Price, Brevin Knight and C.J. Wilson running the show.
Analysis: That could have a trickle-down effect to the rest of the offense in Week 1, but the must-starts, Carlos Boozer and Mehmet Okur, remain safe plays. Andrei Kirilenko is going to come off the bench in what could be a very suitable role for him as sixth man while Matt Harpring remains sidelined. He'll get to be top dog again with the second unit. C.J. Miles is going to start at small forward, but is not going to get many touches with the first group. Where Fantasy owners will want to look for other options is with the fringe options. Price, Knight and Wilson are going to spend the first two games sorting things out and whoever has the hot hand will play. That's too risky in Fantasy. Paul Millsap and Kyle Korver are very low-end options in a two-game week. Ronnie Brewer should be considered only in leagues that allow five guards.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver averaged 9.8 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 50 appearances after being traded from Philadelphia to Utah in 2007-08. Those were his lowest totals since his rookie season in Philadelphia.
Analysis: Korver saw his minutes and his role reduced off the bench in Utah. He won't be quite the sixth man he was in Philly under the Jazz and for that reason will see his Fantasy value diminish to that of a reserve player in 2008-09. He's still a very decent source for three-point shooting in Rotisserie formats, though.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver scored 15 points off the bench Monday against the Wizards. He shot 3-for-3 from 3-point range and 6-for-6 from the field.
Analysis: Korver certainly knows how to put the ball in the basket off the bench. Unfortunately, he doesn't score 15 points regularly enough to give him much value in Fantasy. He's really just a 3-point specialist for Rotisserie formats.
News: Utah forward Kyle Korver went for 17 points, four rebounds and four assists Monday against Toronto in 24 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: Korver is a decent source of points, and when he contributes in assists and rebounds it's an added bonus. Continue to use him as a No. 4 Fantasy option at this time.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver scored 17 points for the second straight game Monday against the Mavericks. He had seven in his previous three games combined.
Analysis: Even when he's going well, Korver doesn't contribute enough in the way of points or rebounds for us to recommend him in Fantasy. Keep him reserved.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver shot 4-for-7 from beyond the arc Saturday at Memphis, chipping in 17 points in 24 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: Korver had the 17 points, but didn't do much else in any other department. He had just a rebound, a turnover and 4 fouls and continues to be a somewhat erratic scorer off the bench. Consider him no more than a stopgap guard or forward in Fantasy at this stage.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver scored 13 points in 19 minutes off the bench Saturday against the Hawks. He has scored in double figures in only three of his last six games.
Analysis: Korver turns it off and on and off and on, but even when he has it on, he scores only a dozen or so. Use him only in deeper Fantasy leagues.
News: Jazz forward Kyle Korver went for 12 points off the bench Tuesday against Golden State. He also added four assists and one rebound.
Analysis: Korver has played well since coming to Utah. He is worth using as a No. 4 Fantasy option for the rest of this season.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver had 4 points, 2 assists and 2 rebounds Wednesday at Seattle. He shot 1-for-3 from the field in 22 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: Korver finished the first half on a whimper, but he's been a nice addition for the Jazz and should continue to play decent minutes off the bench in the second half. He'll provide decent 3-point shooting numbers and some nice low-end scoring, although he can be erratic.
News: Averaging 20.3 points in the previous three games, Kyle Korver was scoreless through three quarters and finished with four points for Utah Friday at Sacramento.
Analysis: Korver had stepped up his 3-point shooting of late, making 11 treys over his previous three contests. He's gaining a bigger and bigger scoring role off the bench and is as good a start now as he has been all season in Fantasy play despite the slow game Friday.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver scored a team-high 27 points off the bench in Wednesday's overtime win at Denver, giving him back-to-back games with 20-plus points off the pine.
Analysis: Korver has stepped up his 3-point shooting of late, making 11 treys over his last three contests. He's gaining a bigger and bigger scoring role off the bench and is as good a start now as he has been all season in Fantasy play.
News: For the first time as a member of the Jazz, G/F Kyle Korver scored 20 points Monday against the Hornets. He did so in 28 minutes off the bench, shooting 6-for-8 from 3-point range. He also had a rebound and two assists.
Analysis: Korver has become the leading reserve for the Jazz and has possibly made starting SF Andrei Kirilenko expendable. Based on his inconsistent scoring, though, he only serves as a decent matchups type in Fantasy.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver had only eight points Monday against the Spurs, marking the first time in four games he didn't score in double figures. He also had four rebounds in 24 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: Korver has become the leading reserve for the Jazz and has possibly made starting SF Andrei Kirilenko expendable. He has averaged 12.2 points over his last six games and is a decent matchups type in Fantasy.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver had 15 points on 5-of-9 shooting Friday against the Kings. He has now scored in double figures in three of his last four games, averaging 12.0 points over that stretch.
Analysis: Korver plays about 20 minutes per night with his new team. As a scorer only, he has little Fantasy value. Use him as nothing more than a matchups type.
News: Jazz SF Kyle Korver fouled out of Thursday's game against the Nuggets, but not before scoring 16 points in 25 minutes off the bench. He hit on 6 of 11 field goals while grabbing three rebounds and dishing out three assists.
Analysis: Korver has scored in double figures for five of his first eight games with the Jazz. He is averaging 10.3 points in that span. Korver has been averaging pretty much near 10 points all season, so little has changed with Utah. He remains a low-end Fantasy forward.
News: Jazz G/F Kyle Korver scored seven points for the second straight game Monday against the Bucks. This time, though, he played only 12 minutes.
Analysis: Korver played 21 minutes his last time out. The Jazz don't need to use him as much as the 76ers did, and it shows with his 12 minutes of play Monday. Considering he averages under 10 points per game as it is, he looks less and less like an advisable Fantasy option.
News: Jazz F Kyle Korver had 11 points, five rebounds and four assists off the bench in Thursday's win over Phoenix. He shot 5-for-14 from the field and was 1-for-6 from beyond the arc. He also added a block.
Analysis: That's a typical Andrei Kirilenko line and Korver played the Kirilenko role off the bench despite the fact that C.J. Miles started at small forward. As long as Kirilenko remains out, Korver should continue to enjoy a bit of a Fantasy boost.
News:Matt Harpring and the Utah reserves saw the beating the Jazz starters put on the Indiana Pacers right from the start. Then they came in and turned up the intensity another notch. Harpring scored a season-high 16 to power the Jazz to a 111-89 victory on Tuesday night. "Our second group played extremely well. Matt Harpring, Jason Hart, Paul Millsap, (Kyle) Korver -- those guys definitely did a great job," Utah coach Jerry Sloan said. "They executed the offense and passed the ball." Harpring also added five rebounds and three assists. Korver had 12 points as he reached double figures for the third time in four games since the trade from Philadelphia. Hart added 11 points, five rebounds and three assists. And Milksap added nine points, eight rebounds and three assists.
Analysis: It was a good team effort from the Jazz bench. Continue to use these players in their current role going forward for your Fantasy team.
News: Recently acquired forward Kyle Korver got a standing ovation from some fans when he entered the game in the second quarter Monday against the Trail Blazers. Korver scored 11 points in his Utah debut to go along with one assist and one rebound. "He works hard to try to get himself open for shots that he can make," Jazz coach Jerry Sloan said. "On top of that, I thought he did a pretty good job trying to defend not knowing what we're trying to do for the most part."
Analysis: Korver averaged 10 points in 25 games with the 76ers and was their top 3-point threat. He played four seasons with Philadelphia, averaging 10.5 points and shooting 42 percent. He holds the team record for 3-pointers in a season with 226 in 2004-05 and should play a similar role for the Jazz, but his playing time may not be as abundant.
News: The Philadelphia 76ers acquired disgruntled guard Gordan Giricek and a first-round draft pick from the Utah Jazz for guard Kyle Korver on Saturday.
Analysis: Korver averaged 10 points in 25 games with the 76ers and was their top 3-point threat. He played four seasons with Philadelphia, averaging 10.5 points and shooting 42 percent. He holds the team record for 3-pointers in a season with 226 in 2004-05 and should play a similar role for the Jazz, but his playing time may not be as abundant.
News: Sixers SF Kyle Korver had 11 points with three rebounds, two assists and a steal Friday vs. the Lakers after going 0-for-5 from the field with two points Wednesday at Indiana.
Analysis: Korver didn't fare much better from the field Friday, shooting just 4-for-12. Still, the sixth man plays starter's minutes and deserves consideration as a No. 4 guard or forward.
News: Sixers G/F Kyle Korver had 13 points and four rebounds Saturday at Cleveland. He has now scored double-digit points in four of his last five games, averaging 11.8 points over that span.
Analysis: Korver thrives from three-point range, but his decreased scoring this season makes him a low-end Fantasy starter at best. In most leagues, keep him reserved.
News: The Philadelphia Daily News notes that Kyle Korver drained 6-of-9 three-pointers Sunday vs. the Knicks after shooting 2-for-21 on three-pointers in the five previous games.
Analysis: That's a good sign for his Fantasy owners. He is usually a threat from long range, but has struggled mightily from beyond the arc. He shouldn't hurt your percentages much now.
News: Sixers SF Kyle Korver scored 11 points with six rebounds, an assist and a block in Monday's loss to Atlanta.
Analysis: Korver is usually a threat from long range, but he shot just 0-for-3 from beyond the arc and he is not shooting the ball well at all from beyond the arc (29.7 percent) this season. Still, he's a sixth man who plays starters minutes and deserves consideration as a No. 4 guard or forward in Fantasy.
News: Sixers G/F Kyle Korver, who missed four games with a strained groin, returned to the court Tuesday at Milwaukee. He went 8-of-13 from the field and 4-of-5 from 3-point range to finish with 20 points and four rebounds in 30 minutes off the bench.
Analysis: Korver immediately asserted himself after he entered late in the first quarter. On his first offensive possession, he hit a long jumper and sank a 3-pointer from the top of the key a few minutes later. The sixth man plays starters minutes and deserves consideration as a No. 4 guard or forward in Fantasy. If someone else dropped him in your league, now is the time to scoop him up.
News: F Kyle Korver hopes to practice Monday and return to game action Tuesday against the Bucks, according to The Sports Xchange. Korver, the Sixers' sixth man, has been out for three games with a strained groin.
Analysis: Korver has averaged 9.1 points in 24.4 minutes per game this season. He's a low-end starter in Fantasy once he returns.
News:Kyle Korver will be out seven to 10 days because of a strained groin, the same injury that sidelined the Philadelphia forward during the preseason. Korver had an MRI on Thursday that showed a strained adductor.
Analysis: Korver, averaging 9.1 points for the 76ers, first hurt his groin in Tuesday's loss at Dallas. He played only 5 1/2 minutes in a loss Wednesday night at New Orleans before he left with a right groin injury. Korver will be out until late November and should be kept reserved in all Fantasy leagues for Week 4 (Nov. 19-25).
News: Sixers SF Kyle Korver had a season-high 13 points with four assists and a rebound in Sunday's loss to the Hornets. He shot just 1-for-8 from beyond the arc.
Analysis: Korver is averaging just 31.4 percent from beyond the arc, a very uncharacteristic start for him. His lowest percentage from three was 39.1 percent in his rookie season in 2003-04 and he hasn't been under 40 percent ever since.
News: Sixers G/F Kyle Korver had a double-double in 33 minutes off the bench Saturday against the Nets. He had 11 points and 11 rebounds, shooting 2-of-4 from three-point range.
Analysis: Korver will come off the bench all season, but he still plays starters minutes and is one of the best sixth men in the league. Consider him a steady starter at the low-end of your lineup.
News: Sixers SG/SF Kyle Korver scored 20 points with four boards in Wednesday's opener at Toronto. He logged 33 minutes off the bench and was 4-of-7 from beyond the arc.
Analysis: Korver will come off the bench all season, but he still plays starters minutes and is one of the best sixth men in the league. Consider him a very steady starter at the low-end of your lineup.
News: 76ers G/F Kyle Korver played 35 minutes off the bench Saturday at Boston, scoring 11 points to go with eight rebounds. He was playing in his third game since missing time with a groin injury.
Analysis: Korver comes off the bench, but he finished with 74 games played and averaged 14.4 ppg, 3.5 rpg and 1.4 apg last season. His versatility makes him a good option in the late rounds of Fantasy drafts.

Analysis: Chalk up Monday to just a bad game for Korver. He has actually been playing particularly well since Andre Miller has taken over as the team's point guard. Continue to use Korver as a solid No. 3 Fantasy forward, but if Miller keeps getting him more and more involved in the offense, then his Fantasy value might improve.
News: Kyle Korver is thrilled that he's able to display his diverse offensive abilities since the 76ers traded Allen Iverson and point guard Andre Miller arrived. Known primarily for his 3-point shooting, Korver is still hitting effective at long range, as evidenced by his percentage of 41.7 from beyond the arc. But he has also been making mid-range jumpers, getting layups on feeds from Miller and posting up smaller guys when opposing teams try to defend him that way. "I feel like I'm getting more opportunities to do more things," Korver said. "It's up to me to show that I can do more than just come off a screen and shoot. Before, I didn't feel like I was hard to guard. If (defenders) got close, it was really hard for me to score. It's all changed for me."
Analysis: In the past nine games, Korver has scored at least 17 points five times and is averaging 18.1 points and is shooting 61-for-129 (47.3 percent) from the field during that time.

News: 76ers F Kyle Korver shot 12-for-28 from three-point range on the seven-game road trip, while the rest of the Sixers went 5-for-25. He scored 20 or more points in four of the Sixers' last five games on the trip, including 25 in the OT loss to the Timberwolves on Friday.
Analysis: Korver is a really streaky shooter, but when he is one his game, he rewards Fantasy owners tremendously. However, since he can be so hot and cold, he should be considered no better than a No. 3 Fantasy forward at this time.
News: Sixers F Kyle Korver is shooting 1-for-12 from three-point land in the last three games. The Sixers didn't have a three-pointer in the loss to Sacramento. Korver had two points and three rebounds in the loss.
Analysis: Outside of the last two games where Korver has amassed just nine points, he has had a pretty productive December scoring in double-figures in all but three games. Hopefully he will be able to break his poor shooting spell and get back on track soon. Consider Krover a decent No. 4 Fantasy forward.
News: Allen Iverson was traded by the 76ers to the Denver Nuggets, a person in the National Basketball Association with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Tuesday afternoon. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the deal was not announced, did not know the terms of the deal. The trade would send Andre Miller, Joe Smith and two 2007 first-round picks to the 76ers for Iverson and perhaps another minimum-salaried player or two.
Analysis: The Sixers will now play a starting lineup that consists of Miller as the starting point guard. Andre Iguodala and Kyle Korver will interchangeably man the shooting guard and small forward roles and will both see a large boost in shot attempts, therefore increasing there scoring totals. Kevin Ollie, who was starting at point guard with little benefit to Fantasy owners, will be an obsolete Fantasy option once more. Chris Webber, who already saw a boost with Iverson inactive for the last two weeks, should be differed to more often than he ever was with A.I. in town and should maintain his recent successful trend.
News: 76ers F Kyle Korver returned to action on Wednesday against the Bulls after missing the previous two games with an ankle injury.

News: Sixers F Kyle Korver scored nine points off 3-for-4 shooting Wednesday at Seattle.

News: Sixers F Kyle Korver scored 10 points with six rebounds and two assists to go with two blocks in Wednesday's loss at Toronto. He is averaging 16.0 ppg, 3.6 and 1.2 apg as the team's sixth man this season.

Analysis: Korver is shooting 9-for-11 (81.1 percent) from three-point land. He has scored 50 points in his past two games, so grab him while he remains a scoring option in Philly. He's a decent reserve forward for now, and a starter in Rotisserie formats because of his 3-point ability.
News: Kyle Korver had 28 points on 10-of-13 shooting for Philadelphia on Friday in a 105-103 win over the Magic. Korver, who came off the bench, also shot 4-of-4 from the free-throw line.
Analysis: It was surprising that Korver was able to score with ease despite being in foul trouble. He rebounded nicely after a poor opening game. He could still be getting used to coming off the bench and may struggle with his role as the team's sixth man early on, but should continue to start in leagues of 12-plus teams for nights like Friday where he blows up.
News: Sixers F Kyle Korver scored six points in 27 minutes of action off the bench Wednesday in the team's season-opening win over Atlanta.
Analysis: Korver finished just 2-for-8 from the floor and missed his only 3-point attempt on the night. He could still be getting used to coming off the bench and may struggle with his role as the team's sixth man early on, but should continue to start in leagues of 12-plus teams.
News: According to the Philadelphia Inquirer, the 76ers will use sharpshooting F Kyle Korver as their sixth man.
Analysis: As we'd anticapted, Korver gives the Sixers a 3-point threat off the bench and should still post healthy minutes as the first man off the bench. Consider him a No. 4 forward option until the dust settles and we see what he's capable of off the bench. He did average 16.1 ppg in seven games off the bench during the preaseason.
News: The 76ers bench will consist of G Kevin Ollie, G Louis Williams, F Kyle Korver, F Rodney Carney, F Shavlik Randolph, F Bobby Jones, F Alan Henderson, F Steven Smith and C Steven Hunter to start the season.
Analysis: Korver gives the Sixers a 3-point threat off the bench, while Randolph should add rebounding and a lunch-pail mentality in the paint. Hunter and Carney are the wild cards for a reserve group that was ineffective in 2005-06. Carney has caught the eye of the coaching staff and could develop some Fantasy value, but should remain on the waiver wire until further notice. The same goes for the rest of the players on the bench.

Analysis: Korver had started each of the first 37 games and this experiment will seriously cut into his value. Korver is among the league leaders in 3-pointers this season, but wait to see how the demotion affects his value before starting him again. Salmons will have minimal Fantasy value as a starter as his role is more defensive than anything else.
