Korver still waiting for clean briefs
SEATTLE Even when pressed, Kyle Korver really didn't want to discuss how many times he has done laundry since being traded from Philadelphia to Utah in late December. Suffice it to say it's not been nearly enough. That in mind, he can't wait to travel to Philly on Thursday. "I had some friends just kind of go in my closet and grab some stuff and ship it out," the Jazz's newest shooting guard said. "But it's just, like, the little things that you don't want them digging through ... little stuff like that that I haven't had in the last 45 days." Little, like ... "clean drawers." If it wasn't for dirty underwear, then, Korver might have accepted an invitation to take part in the NBA's long-distance shooting contest this coming Saturday in New Orleans. There, he could have joined several teammates Carlos Boozer (All-Star Game), Deron Williams (skills challenge), Ronnie Brewer and Paul Millsap (rookie-sophomore challenge game) and NBA Development League-assigned rookies Morris Almond and Kyrylo Fesenko (D-League All-Star Game) taking part in various NBA All-Star Weekend festivities.
