Kyle Korver to replace Dwyane Wade in All-Star Game

Posted by on Feb 10, 2015 20:27

A lot of people thought sharp shooter Kyle Korver deserved to be an All-Star and not just a participant in the Three-Point contest. Well, now he’ll get his chance.

For all of you people who think Brandon Knight should get in, just look at these stats for Korver:

12.9 ppg, 4.3 rpg, 2.7 apg, 52.8 3P% (leads the league), 51.6 FG%, 92 FT% (leads the league)

So don’t complain that he made the All-Star Game. He’s on the best team in the East and maybe even the league and the Hawks absolutely deserve four guys in that game. Korver is making 3.1 triples a game so just keep that in mind as well.
