Korver had surgery today to repair ligament damage in his right ankle and will be out for three months, confirms the Hawks. 

The Atlanta Hawks announced Korver will miss the remainder of the playoffs, per Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today: 

Atlanta was down double digits to Cleveland when the injury occurred and was well on its way to a 2-0 series deficit.

Korver shot a blistering 49.2 percent from three-point range this season and was the best floor-spacer on the team. He made the All-Star team for his efforts. The Hawks ultimately fell to the Cleveland Cavaliers 4-0.
