Kyle Korver owns another Hawks record for his shooting.
The guard set the franchise record for consecutive free throws at 49. Korver set the mark with four free throws in the final seconds of a 104-97 win at the Rockets Saturday night. He broke the mark of 47 set by Tom McMillen in 1978-79. The streak of 49 straight is also a personal best for Korver.
The third free throw was also the 1,000th of his career.
Korver entered the game second in the NBA in free-throw percentage. He had just two misses, making 52 of 54. His last miss was Nov. 7 at the Hornets.
Korver owns the NBA record for consecutive games with a made 3-pointer of 127 set last season.
