Korver agrees to one-year deal with Bucks

WASHINGTON, July 20 (Xinhua) -- Veteran sharpshooter Kyle Korver has agreed to a one-year deal with the Milwaukee Bucks, local media reported on Saturday.

Korver, a 16-year veteran who has played in 135 playoff games, has been one of the most pursued free agents left on the market because of his ability to shoot from behind the arc. In his career, he's made 42.9 percent of his three-point shots.

With the Bucks, Korver re-unites with coach Mike Budenholzer. Korver played under Budenholzer for three seasons with the Atlanta Hawks.

Korver, 38, has also been linked to the Philadelphia 76ers during the offseason, but the Budenholzer connection may have been the decisive factor.
