Korver brings in career averages of 10 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and two three-pointers per game on 42.9% shooting from downtown. On paper, a sharpshooter like Korver being paired with the incredible passing stars that Cleveland has along with other shooters on the team is an absolute perfect fit.
