Hawks' Kyle Korver: To come off bench moving forward

Korver is expected to move back into a bench role for the foreseeable future, with Thabo Sefolosha entering the starting lineup at shooting guard, Chris Vivlamore of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Analysis:

Korver is generally considered the better scorer of the the two, but after going a combined 0-for-6 from the three-point line over his last two outings, the Hawks have decided to shake things up with Sefolosha getting the start. The change is reportedly expected to hold for quite some time, so get accustomed to seeing Sefolosha in the starting lineup at the two. Korver has averaged 27.6 minutes so far this season, but could see that on the decline now that he's working with the second unit.
