After being nudged down by Stephen Curry a few days ago, Kyle Korver has found his way back up the career three-point ladder. In the Utah Jazz's Saturday night game against the Chicago Bulls, Korver climbed to fourth place on the NBA's all-time made threes list, edging Jason Terry.

Kyle Korver, as of this writing, has 2,284 three-pointers made which is only one basket behind Curry. Everyone knows it won't be a contest between Korver and the Warriors star due to the latter's insane rate and level of play.
Still, the Jazz shooting guard, even 37 years old, is lights out from anywhere and he's exactly what Utah needs. The Jazz were victorious over the Bulls, 110-102, with Korver tallying 16 points, five rebounds, one block, and four trifectas.
The Jazz extended their winning streak to three games and now sit a half game behind the Los Angeles Lakers for the Western Conference's eighth seed. The Lakers, who are trending toward the other direction, have yet to welcome back LeBron James, so every opportunity for Utah to gain ground is valuable.
After 22 games in his second tour of duty in Salt Lake City, Kyle Korver has averaged 9.3 points and 2.0 rebounds per game while shooting 43 percent from the field, 39 percent from long distance, and 85 percent from the charity stripe.
