Warriors and Steve Kerr have signed an extension

The Golden State Warriors and Head Coach Steve Kerr have signed a multi-year contract extension.

“We’re excited that Coach Kerr will continue to lead our team in the coming years with this well-deserved contract extension,” said Warriors Co-Executive Chairman & CEO Joe Lacob. “Steve has played an immense role in our success over the last decade, success that has been duplicated by very few coaches in NBA history.

“His resumes as both a player and coach are astonishing, but not surprising, because his management skills and integrity as a person are off-the-charts and on display every single day. Simply put, he is the kind of individual you want leading your team and his championship pedigree is beyond impressive.”

Currently in his 10th season as head coach, Kerr has guided the Warriors through their most prolific decade in franchise history with a list of accomplishments that includes four NBA championships (2015, 2017, 2018, 2022), six NBA Finals appearances (2015-2019, 2022), seven postseason appearances (2015-19, 2022-23), the NBA’s single-season wins record (73), an NBA Coach of the Year award (2015-16), and five of the six winningest seasons in team history.

“I’m thrilled to continue the partnership that I have enjoyed with this great franchise for the past 10 years,” said Kerr. “I want to thank the people who have put their trust in me to coach our team, including Joe Lacob, Peter Guber and the entire ownership group. And, of course, I want to thank my wonderful coaching staff and all of the amazing players who have worn the Warriors uniform this past decade.

“Every coach is dependent on the talent and character of their players, and I have been blessed beyond belief in that regard. I look forward to working with the team and the entire organization as we face the exciting challenges of this season and beyond.”
