The Atlanta Hawks are finalizing the hire of Kyle Korver to a front office role, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Korver played in Atlanta from 2012-17, making the All-Star team in 2015. He was a Nets player development coach last season.

Korver played for the Sixers from 2003 to 2008, becoming a sharpshooting specialist during his time, as Korver sits third all-time in three points made in Philadelphia's history.

Since retiring after his 17-year career in 2020, Korver began helping the Brooklyn Nets out as player development, even helping Ben Simmons after the Australian joined the team at the deadline.

Korver's position in the front office has not been confirmed or elaborated on by the Hawks organization.
