This past offseason, the Cleveland Cavaliers signed a then 36-year-old Kyle Korver to a three-year contract. A contract that won’t end till he’s nearing 40.
While his value wasn’t as clear then, it’s certainly clear now, and as the Cavaliers prepare to take on the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference Finals, the Kyle Korver effect will be at an all-time high.
Korver’s production is severely overlooked. As a whole, the Cavaliers might not have made it out of the first round of the playoffs without Korver being the only consistent scorer aside from LeBron James. In three of the Cavs four first-round victories, Korver hit at least four triples.
