ESPN REPORT: The Golden State Warriors head coach is being issued a fine of $500 million for breaking…
Steve Kerr, the head coach of the Golden State Warriors, inked a two-year contract extension in February of last year, which will keep him in office until the 2025–26 campaign.
At the time of the deal, Kerr was in his tenth season as the head coach of the Warriors and his contract was about to expire. It was only reasonable for both parties to carry on with what has become a historic marriage. The somewhat two-year deal did raise doubts about how long he would be a coach in Northern California, though.
These Warriors have witnessed the end of their dynasty, having just missed the playoffs for the third time in five years. This summer also seems to bring up a lot of roster changes. NBA free agency will begin for Klay Thompson. Andrew Wiggins is probably going to be dealt.
Kerr just revealed how long he will be sitting on the Warriors bench, given how things are changing in Northern California. He appeared to also offer a schedule for Golden State’s big three—Thompson, Green, and Stephen Curry—during that process.
According to Steve Kerr, every sports position has almost a shelf life (NBC Bay Area, Raj Mathai). And as a coach, I believe I will sense when it’s time to step down, even though I didn’t sense it this past year. We seem to have a few years ahead of us with Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and maybe Klay Thompson. We’re still operating.
