What happened to Kyle Korver? A lot of people are asking that after the 17 year veteran did not announce his retirement yet is not playing. While he may join a team just before the playoffs, the shooter is sitting out on purpose. This video shows why an emotionally charged final few years in the NBA might point to why Korver is not playing. Kyle Korver is still one of the most accurate 3-point shooters in league history and that skill is valuable even at 40 years old. The reason he is not playing and the answer to “what happened” is tragic and heartbreaking.

My son's first ever autograph from a athlete was Kyle. No other player wanted to give my son a autograph when they were walking through the tunnel to go to the locker room. Kyle actually came back and gave my son a autograph. A moment he will never forget. Thanks Kyle!
Go Kyle! That’s awesome for your son
Same here! He walked back out and signed my custom korver jersey!
Kyle korevers kid went to the preschool my mom works at
That's cool story you have shared, it made me happy reading this 😁
That’s funny cuz as a kid I tried to get an autograph from the Rashid Wallace , & Tayshawn prince both refused but Kyle Korver went to put his bag down on the tour bus and came back to give me an autograph real down to earth cool guy 💯
Hands down to one of the most humble assassins in the league.
I woulda said sniper but hey!
WELL SAID .>🎤
That Religion
Kobe Bryant's death should pretty much wake everybody up and make you realize that you're truly just a mortal. Enjoy every moment because tomorrow you're literally gone and that's it
@@doctorclarke6556 I guarantee Kobe would of traded all his money and success to have a chance to help raise and watch his daughters grow. That is the saddest part to me. He finally was able to be that dad and then him and gianna were taken.
Wow
I didnt know that his story was that deep and inspirational in the nba
Me either until I researched it tbh. I was literally inspired. My favorite Feature Friday so far actually.
Kyle Korver is a genuinely good guy, I hope he can come back and sign with a contender and compete for a ring
I hope he ends his career with the jazz
Yeah he fits to Jazz's run and gun style of game, I do hope he could make a comeback there
I want Korver back on the jazz. He fits our offensive rotation perfectly.
Fr
he is to old to play........
Even if korver doesn't keep playing people will never forget the type of person he is. A genuine down to earth man and a legend
how it taste?
Ac green vibes
Damn I didn’t know Korver was going through the passing of his brother. Such a sad story. Always loved him when he was in the Bulls. I’m glad he’s doing something bigger than himself rn. Still making them big shots even outside the nba court.
Damn rip
Sniper and an absolute legend. Hope he makes a comeback to the league soon enough and later on transitions into coaching.
we need to beat everton mate
@@ilirunited389 fr and liverpool better get there shit together and beat city
He is not a Legend.

You're a wonderful human being, Kyle. You played a huge part in the league now is the time to spend time with your family. God bless you, brother.
He's a good player, son, brother, husband, father and human being. You can see it on his eyes
Utube are you a good person by living waters
lol
@Clay Tomson not even close. one of the best shooters in NBA history.
@Clay Tomsonso he didn't do well in the playoffs, you're the only one that brought that up there. I'm just saying he's one of the best shooters in NBA history in general. He's put up some amazing percentages throughout his career in the regular season which may not mean much to you, but it does to others. including the NBA who have had his name among the top shooters of all time for years.
@Clay Tomson That sorry ass player has accomplished more in his life than most people would even be able to dream about. You should go play him 1v1.
To save your time: He's busy filming Mission Impossible. Thank me later
Wouldn't you end that with you're welcome? Why you saying thanks if it was you who saved us, and by us I mean probably no one, time? Just curious
@@jeremyness2395 I was about to say thank me later. Just typo.
@@renzsumaratas That makes a bit more sense. 😁
😂
I named my first born son Korver. Not even kidding. I would love for him to grow up to be an elite shooter like Kyle but my hopes are for him to grow up to be the man Kyle is off the court
Hes like 40 or close to it. Same thing that happened to Ray Allen, after a good season.
I can admit to korver being a great dude .. went to an Atlanta game as he played there and he is the only guy who stopped to give autographs to us including myself and held a lil chit chat 💬 with me and my fam ..wish him all the best .. for him and his fam.. an most importantly he was so loved by the greats being it Iverson LeBron or whoever cos he is a great guy
The Dallas mavericks need to sign Kyle Korver because they miss seth curry. Also they shoot 33 percent from 3 kyle fixes these problems
Wow this is so true! The Mavs could really use him rn
Sounds good.
My firts thought was "The mavs could use him"
Defensively...What about that layup line to the basket?
I don’t think they need another defensive liability...
U can’t tell me he don’t look like Ashton Kutcher a little
When he was a rookie they was twins
Yeah when he was a rookie he did.
Yup
Maybe they're twins 😂
They’re both from my home state
I met him in real life his rookie year in philly he is so down to earth I love him... wish the sixers get him back... him and Elton are ex teammates...
We definitely can use him fam.
I would like to see him get into coaching later on. He's a solid person for youngsters to look up to.
@Charles Picard sounds like you got a real grievance there, hope things get better for you.
well hes now somewhat of a coach for the bkn
@@tennojikyoto ????
I think he's gonna be a head coach some day
it is heartbroken to lose someone in your life, but i would like to think he is not playing not because he is sad, it is because he realized spending time with family is what makes him happy.
I loved watching him play in Atlanta. You could see during warmups, interacting with teammates on the bench and during timeouts that he was a dream teammate.
Is a man that believes in a living and loving God. A true messenger of peace and unity that’s the reason why he is so humble
Christians believe that Jesus is dead and was killed though 🤔
@@mamindhive nope! We believe He resurrected on the third day and then ascended into heaven and is now at the right hand of God.
Kyle was my favorite NBA player. Especially when he was a key player in the Cavaliers.
The Cavs doesn't appreciate him and KARMA hits.
I wish he won a ring with Cavs/LeBRON when they went to NBA Finals twice but sadly loss to Golden State with KD joining the super team lol!
I’m missed Kyle with Cleveland. Him and Kevin Love, Kyrie Irving, and LeBron James before he became some Woke Victim.
This guy can be coach, work in any administration and even be a model after basketball.
Easy there bud
The warriors should pick him up and he’ll fit perfectly with them.
true dat
Worry?
Imagine that steph,kyle and klay
The worr.. what now ?
Naahhhhh
He is getting picked up I’m sure
Yeah, the point of this video is that he could play but is choosing not to at this time.
LeBron will be offering him a deal before the deadline
@@phillmoe lakers fan, they don’t need shooting but a big
@@phillmoe GM Lebron lol
@@JJ-bh6sk whole team traded before pizza delivery shows up lol
Almost had me in tears talking about his family. And boy do all those boys look similar! He can hop back to the Jazz anytime!
As a Jazz fan, we adore him here. Sad to hear about his brother. Great player, amazing shooter from downtown.
I wish the cavs never traded him man he could’ve been a great veteran alongside klove for their young talent
How are bench warmers like Jared Dudley who fires shots at people but can’t play have a roster spot... smh
Energy
Good character in the dressing room by all reports
Yeah, the point of this video is that he could play but is choosing not to at this time.
Dudley is a good locker room guy.
He’s a locker room dude
He was a great addition to the Jazz and honestly, I wish he was still with the Jazz...
He used to stutter really bad when he was on the Sixers. Cool to see that growth as well.
A humble Christian and uses his talents and wealth for others. True hearted son
Amen
stop the bs about christian
toto maxwell It’s well known that he’s a devout Christian. U sound clueless
@@sC-ho5xx just learning BRAGGING ABOUT BEING christian ,IT'S HOW TO PRESENT YOURSELF TO THE WORLD.
I AM VERY AFRAID OF ANYONE BRAGGING ABOUT BEING A CHRISTIAN.
VERY AFRAID OF CHRISTIAN BRAGGER.
SORRY " WELL KNOWN CHRISTIAN" DID NOT KNOW THERE IS CERTIFICAT FOR DATE.
WHAT YOU KNOW ABOUT THE UNKNOWN?
@@totomaxwell8080 you are one of those new atheists huh? The Pinnacle of intellectual mediocrity.
I really thought he was out of the league because he decided to spend more time with Mila Kunis
😭😭😭😭😂😂😂😂😪😪
I thought he is with Demi Moore.
🤣🤣🤣
Say what??
Yah he is busy punking people
The clip of his bro almost made me tear up. I wish their family the best.
Who's chopping the invisible onion again?
I farted. My bad.
Once a week I google his name just to see if there's been any updates on his decision to play/retire. He's also been making guest appearances on The Arena on TNT.
Korver is one of those players that you can’t not like unless he buried a three that made your team lose
Dude is so underrated. Straight sniper, and it doesnt even matter how old he gets. Was fun watching him get better every year while he was playing in the league, very classy. From one 3 point shooter to another, salute.
He wasn't underrated though. He was an allstar when Kobe,Dirk,Duncan, Wade was still playing. Not to mention Kevin Love, Howard, Griffin were in their prime. Steph and Klay was rising. That's no easy feature especially for someone who only has his catch and shoot play. But like Curry and Klay. He never stands still waiting for the ball. He's on of the greatest catch and shoot players out there with Klay. Props to him but he wasn't underrated. Since Atlanta everyone acknowledged him but to be fair he really only has his jumpshots.
Kyle Korver is a legend to all of us Hawks fans. We love you forever Kyle
Warriors should sign him for 2yrs just for next year when klay is back to team him up with Curry, klay and the front court would have Field day.
He's a horrible defender, he's not as good as he was in any resemble way. No thanks.
Or are we doing that emotional response thing where we say a bunch of bullshit because we just recently watched a sad video?
@@itsyourenotyour9101 lol I'm any resemble way? That's not a sentence. And korver wouldn't be used in a situation where defense is an important thing and if so klay or Draymond would have those assignments. Kyle could be signed at a vet minimum and go in to give space to the floor while starters rest and other guys get easier looks OR to hit shots when other good shooters are on the floor whomever you leave open leaves another great shooter open. That's why I paired him with warriors. I'm not even a warriors fan favorite team is lakers and I'm from massachusetts lol. Think you meant to say korver has no resemblance of the player he used to be
@@richarddenaris4769 They said all of that to try and make you look bad, even edited their comment and still had that terrible grammar 🤣
TL;DR : Skip to 7:44 for the answer
It sucks as a Korver fan not seeing him with the Bucks again or whatever team he would have decided to play for, but you can't be mad at it if this is the reasoning for it. Even if he isn't a guy who ranks super high for the NBA all-time, his impact on and off the court won't be forgotten.
He and I are both from Pella, Iowa and his dad is my pastor... He is an incredible man coming from an amazing family.
leave the social justice stuff out. We all see how it damaged the league.
Maybe cops should stop shooting people for no good fucking reason.
Says you.
@brenda robbins Breona Taylor was asleep in her bed when she was shot and killed.
@@Dubngrub wrong.
People need to stop resisting arrests. If you role the complete videos that the mainstream media leaves out than you will see in most of the cases they were resisting arrest. Just need to listen to direction and you will be OK. Not hard to follow yet people follow these WOKE movements . Pretty sick .
jeeeez bruh that was sad as hell dam, as 4 brothers growing up you know they definitely all played ball together as kids and the youngest one passes away. Atleast he got a chance to say goodbye. RIP to his brother, Kyle Korver deserves all the happiness in the world
This guy got traded for xerox machine
i got to give kyle korver a high five when the cavs played in orlando in 2018. I remember like if it was yesterday.
I love that set
It will never get old
5:00 is what you came for. His brother Kirk died just as he was about to get a liver transplant. 6:30 now Kyle has 3 kids of his own and he spends a lot of time with them.
7:06 oh my god I got that mask too! I didn’t go to that university but while they were still trying to recruit me, they gave me one.
Outside of basketball I think Kyle is a family oriented man with good parents and brothers.
I already liked him and feared him when he played against a team I supported , but after watching this video , I became a fan. Much love to Kyle !!
He was always one of my favorite players.
the devastating injury came during his prime with the hawks in the playoffs when matthew delladeova kinda intentionally ran into his legs. It took a lot to recover and Korver said "he had to completely change his shot as a result of the injury" of course he was never the same since. Best 3 pt shooter of all time
i hope gsw sign him...he will be fit there even at the 2nd unit/off the bench role
He used his platform, and used it for social justice and peace... What a humble and beautiful soul. Gotta love em
wondering why jr smith was given more minutes than korver at his time at cavs. Korver is literally more consistent.
One word. Defense.
@@FrostyyAstro well korver is an average defender but jr's d is better?
My Respect For Kyle Korver has Risen To an All Time High
Kyle Korver became one of my favorite players because he splashed almost every shot in NBA 2k13, and now that I know that he's even better outside of the game, I like him better.
My hat goes off to you Mr. Kyle kover First class in every aspect thank you
Kyle Korver’s the kindest soul on the planet
What happened to him? He got a TV role as John in Person of Interest
I still can't find the Kobe Hoddy merch, can someone show me or send me the link

@@AMHoops Thanks for the link, just too bad the size M is out of stock :(
Lifelong Jazz fan here, Kyle was a great addition to SLC both times he played here. Wonderful person, 🏀
I literally was thinking about what happened to Korver, and I realize this video was posted 1 hour ago
Nice! Glad I made it then. I hope you liked it.
He would fit amazing on the Suns! And our new and improved amazing culture on and off the court
He came up Waaaay Waaay small in the 2 Finals with The Cavs, those bright lights and big stage was too much for him
I guess you missed the part where his brother died a few weeks before the playoffs. I think anyone would have. A hard time focusing on basketball after that. Especially if you were really close to your brother.
@Clay Tomson you might at to go look at stats his shooting dropped from .40% to 38 not much of a drop off his points dipped a little but his minutes were reduced from around to a little over 20 to 16.5 your playing less minutes so it’s natural for your points to dip a little. Not to mention most guys shooting percentage drop in the playoffs a little bit. Why because the teams your facing are usually better, you do the ethos Enron playoff teams to boost your numbers. I’m not sure I’d say he disappeared did the go down a little sure but they were all pretty close to his career playoff Avgs so I’m not sure I’d say he disappeared. If you were expecting him to help win then your priorities were messed up to begin with. He’s a role player and has always been a role player! He doesn’t really decide wins or loses he just gives his minutes and if your minutes are shrunken by the coaches not much you can do. If you want to looks at his worst playoff his rookie season was worse he did drop off them with Phil.
@Clay Tomson I’ve never heard anyone call him a hell of gamer. He was a good 3 pt shooter but was always 3rd or 4th option in most offenses. I don’t know who you talked to that called him a hall of gamer but they are crazy.
This man is good. He can play. Any. Where. Come to the. Heat. They need. You. 💫☄️💫☄️💫☄️💫☄️💫☄️💪🏽💪🏽🇩🇴🇩🇴🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Traded for a copy machine
he outlasted that copy machine too
I am glad that someone did a video on him. This guy deserves more attention than any body can think of. True genuine heart off the court and in the locker room. Coaching in his resume? May be. As Chi fan, enjoyed the days he wore a Bulls jersey. This guy is class written all over him.
I gotta know does the copy machine he was traded for still work and is it still being by the Nets? Could they at least still have it so they can tell the story!
Atlanta could pick him up. I mean he became all star there
Good idea. If a contender doesn't pick him up, Atlanta should.
Ayo the Pels could use him for sure
Pelicans ain’t contending bro
I think Boston would sign him
Okc should sign him on a veterans minimum
@@lancestephenson6501 he probably going to a contender
And about 15 other teams tbh
Korver is actually from my town of Lakewood California but he moved to Iowa when he was 12 because I think his dad was a pastor and got a new gig out there.
Respect to kyle korver. This guy once was traded for a printer but it turn out he had a good nba career.
Fax
Still remember those Houston-Utah playoff rivalry days, formidable shooter, respect him a lot.
How can you not Love a Great Guy like KK
He’s an underrated player and a good human being god bless you Kyle! ❤️
:(
I’m so sorry for them. So sad for them and I’m shure his brother truely fought.
Imagine if kyle still on court, he surely champs with bucks now :(
yeah this is the closest he'll get a ring. still breaks my heart knowing he's not on the roster:/
I think Korver is a good fit to GSW. Steph can give Korver open looks.
Kyle Korver is an amazing guy, I was lucky enough to meet him at a Cavs game and he had a conversation with my mom and I and signed my jersey
Always liked him. Just one of those guys you want in your life.
On your Life team ya know what I mean?
I love Kyle korver I grew up in small town Edwardsville Illinois we should see him at the St Louis basketball tournament every year for mid majors he's basically been blackballed for speaking up for his black NBA players last year
Legendary Sniper, especially in playoffs
Kyle Korver got me into being a fan of basketball. My favorite player ever, Kyle Korver for Thyreeeeeeeeee
I really like Kyle. I’m rooting for him
Straight assassin... the modern day riffle man- no offense Chuck P.
He should get a job, cuz he can still shoot the lights out. Why not the 76ers to play like 10-15 mins per game
cause defense is needed
@@MagpieR6 then what did they play Seth Curry for. More shooting isn't bad for them
Truth
@@AMHoops Ayy, you responded
@@yunan9610 youre a casual if you think seth is a negative on the defensive side. gigantic difference between him and a 40 year old korver who has been getting burnt out in limited minutes for over half a decade
Everybody keep talking about him coaching,good guy,nice guy. Heella shooter.yes true. That's not this is about if y'all can remember during the lock out social issues he said something that was not going to be ignored. ELITE got to him
Heartbreaking, made millions taking jump shots for a job
Kyle Korver, if any of your friends reads this post, I want him/her to let you know that I truly MISS you. Your humble disposition and the athletic ability are among the countless reasons why I cherish you. Whatever you do...wherever you go, may GOD watch over you and protect you. Ti voglio bene ( I want what's GOOD for you)!
I feel like someone like curry or Klay would probably have a job at 40 if they wanted to as well. We'll see if they want to do that tho
Nothing happened to him. He got drafted at 19-20 years old and he played until he was 39.
Title: “What happened to Kyle Korver?”
First 5 second of the video: “Kyle Korver is almost 40 years old now”
The video should stop then😂
It's literally why he's not in the league. Not only is he 39, he has never been able to do anything but shoot. If he wasn't a literal sniper and kinda tall he would've been gone. Would've went from Kyle Korver to Kyle Singler
I love Korver!! He has a big heart ❤💙
He's amazing, I wish him the best and I hope he is having the most amazing time
Exactly Kanyes Son and SlickShotzz13. Try hustling up a b-ball court at 40 for 15 minutes out a 48 minute game and dropping 3's in...
It seems inevitable, but in today's NBA game it's not plausible.
How can you say he retired when he never announced it? Korver is just taking time off. You wasted 8 minutes to tell us that 😤 smh. He’ll be picked up again like he always is as a spot up shooter for a few minutes a game. He hasn’t retired if he doesn’t announce his retirement and we all know this
So inspirational. Huge impact for others.
Aaaaahh man! Y’all got me in this one😢, I did not expect that! I remember watching him back in the day..
Imagine if he went to the warriors? Splash Brothers will be complete.
Dude had a very long career, hope he comes back as a coach when he's ready.
I love Kyle.. He is a great man. ❤️❤️❤️
Look at that Clay Thomson guy in the comments so stupid he thinks Kyle is a sorry ass player while being a 51st drafted and still made it to be one of the greatest 3pt shooters
