Kyle Korver excused from Cavs to be with his family after brother's death

Kyle Korver has been excused by Cleveland Cavaliers following the death of his young brother Kirk, 27.
Kyle Korver missed the Cavs' win over the Chicago Bulls on Saturday to attend to what was termed a family medical emergency. 

Per ESPN, Kirk Korver, 27, was the youngest of four Korver brothers, all of whom played basketball at the collegiate level or above.
Kirk finished his career at the University of Missouri, Kansas City in 2013-14, amassing 597 points and 267 rebounds in four seasons as a forward for the Kangaroos.

We are very sad to share that Cavaliers guard Kyle Korver’s brother, Kirk, passed away today. Kyle has been excused from the team to be with his family. We extend our deepest condolences and heartfelt best to Kyle and his entire family as they go through this very difficult time.
