Uncertainty continues to surround Steve Kerr and his long-term future with the Golden State Warriors, according to Nick Friedell of The Athletic.
The veteran coach has decided to hold off on contract discussions until the season ends, and a team source confirmed that approach remains unchanged.
Kerr is currently on a two-year, $35 million extension signed in 2024 that runs through this season. Meanwhile, Golden State, sitting 10th, must win two play-in games to advance to the playoffs.
Even with the situation unresolved, Kerr is reportedly interested in staying and continuing to coach the team alongside Stephen Curry following a difficult season.
Draymond Green made it clear he believes the organization already has the right coach and warned against making a change.
“I think oftentimes in this league, everybody is always looking at the other side thinking it’s greener,” Green said, per Florito Maniego of NBC Sports Bay Area.
“Then, when they get on the other side, they realize all the grass is brown, and it’s dead. And there’s no sprinkler system, and the sun doesn’t rise on that side, it only sets on that side.
“Then, everybody wants to look back, like, ‘Oh, man.’ Now you start this cycle of [hiring] four coaches in four years. You start this cycle of six coaches over eight years.
“The Warriors have been through that cycle, and nobody is trying to go through that again. So, as long as we have Steve Kerr wanting to coach this team, you’re not going to go and find a better coach, so that’s not a worry of mine or anybody in this organization.”
