With Dwyane Wade dropping out of the all-star game due to his hamstring injury earlier today, Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Kyle Korver will replace Wade in the game. Kyle Korver is the 4th Atlanta Hawks player to be named to the NBA All-Star team joining Jeff Teague, Al Hoford, and Paul Millsap.

NBA commissioner Adam Silver has to pick the injury replacement for Dwyane Wade and I'm hearing that it will be Kyle Korver who gets the nod

— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) February 11, 2015

Kyle Korver is currently averaging 12.9 points, 2.7 assists, and 4.3 rebounds in 52 games this season. Korver is also looking to become the first player with a 50% field goal percentage, a 40% 3-point field goal percentage, and a 90% free throw percentage in NBA history.
