Rookie Tales ... with Kyle Korver

Veteran Marksman Looks Back on His Freshman Campaign

When he watched his name flash across the bottom of the screen on ESPN’s scrolling ticker – the 51st pick of the 2003 Draft – there’s no way Kyle Korver could have known he’d go on to become one of the greatest long-distance shooters in NBA history.

But 16 seasons later, that’s exactly where Korver’s legacy stands.

The Lakewood, California native came into the 2018-19 season having canned 2,213 career three-pointers – good for 4th on the NBA’s all-time list, 2nd among active players.
