Feb 28, 2013 11:49 AM

Kyle Korver would consider a return to the Utah Jazz in free agency.

Korver, 31, will be an unrestricted free agent after this season.

"I would definitely listen to Utah if they came to me with an offer," Korver said. "I have a lot of respect for the organization, and it’s just a great place to live life and play basketball."

Korver spent three seasons with the Jazz and remains involved in Salt Lake City community events.

"Man, this home crowd is amazing," Korver said. "We walked in and were talking about the seats and how they are right down here on the floor. It’s just a really fun place to play."
