Kyle Korver, finally with Nets as an assistant, finds his first pupil, Nic Claxton

Last month, Shams Charania spoke about Kyle Korver’s role with the Nets. Charania had a bit of surprising take. The 6’7” wingman wasn’t in Brooklyn just to improve the 3-point performance of players like him.

“I’m told the priority for him will be to work with other shooters on this team: the Joe Harris’s of the world, Nic Claxton, big men on this team who can learn a lot from Kyle Korver when it comes to free throw shooting and overall shooting. Just another guy like they brought in Amar’e Stoudemire on Steve Nash’s staff and I think they’re making it a priority to bring in former players with high basketball acumen for this coaching staff.
