” I want to stay here. » This is what Steve Kerr, the iconic coach of the Golden State Warriors, declared on Monday, a few weeks before attacking his 10th season at the head of the San Francisco franchise (the NBA Championship will begin on October 24). This will be the final year of his contract with the Warriors.
Aged 58, champion in 2015, 2017, 2018 and 2022 with Golden State, Kerr has not yet signed an extension with owner Joe Lacob or general manager Mike Dunleavy, but feels “good in this position. […] I know Mike and Joe want me to stay, so I’m very confident, not stressed at all about this situation. I am fully capable of coaching, regardless of whether I only have one year left on my contract or whether I am extended.”
Dunleavy assured that the Warriors could take their time to extend their coach and one of their star players, Klay Thompson, who will also enter the last year of his contract. “We don’t have a specific timetable, so we will continue to discuss. […] We are very confident,” he said.
Golden State recruited point guard Chris Paul (38) from the Phoenix Suns in the offseason, with whom Steve Kerr had “four or five very informative conversations. I’m honored to be able to coach him. He’s one of the greatest players I know. His way of commanding a team, of controlling the game… he knows what to do to win.”
