11. Kyle Korver

Kyle Korver is clearly no longer the player he once was even just a couple years ago, but he’s still a guy that could be counted on in spurts. The days of Korver lighting up a defense, or breaking a zone, are clearly behind him, but he can still hit a few shots in a row in order to secure momentum or change it.

Nevertheless, because of his defensive shortcomings, Korver likely won’t see the court much against the Warriors. However, if the Cavs need some added shooting on the floor, Korver will get his chance.

And we’ve seen stranger things. With LeBron orchestrating the offense, I’m sure he can find a way to make Korver effective.
