Kyle Korver to undergo ankle surgery on Wednesday

Hawks swingman Kyle Korver will have surgery on his injured ankle on Wednesday

When we last heard news surrounding Kyle Korver, the Atlanta Hawks were awaiting a "second opinion" on the veteran swingman's injured ankle. On Tuesday night, any optimism surrounding a way to avoid surgery evaporated.

First, David Aldridge of TNT reported that Korver would undergo surgery on Wednesday.

Kyle Korver tells me he will have surgery tomorrow on his ankle.

Later in the evening, head coach Mike Budenholzer confirmed the report with an announcement that Korver will go under the knife.
