Steve Kerr is staying put on the Golden State Warriors<\/a> sideline. The Warriors decided to re-sign the four-time NBA<\/a> champion head coach to a new two-year deal<\/a> running through the 2027-28 season, the team announced Tuesday.<\/p>\n

Financial terms were not disclosed, though Kerr previously earned $17.5 million annually on a two-year, $35 million deal. This keeps him as the highest-paid coach in NBA history.<\/p>\n

While Kerr remains, his supporting cast will look different next season.<\/p>\n

Lead assistants Terry Stotts and Jerry Stackhouse are both leaving Golden State, per ESPN<\/a>. Kris Weems is the lone holdover expected to remain with the team.<\/p>\n

Uncertainty surrounded Kerr’s future in Golden State heading into the offseason. The Warriors endured a tumultuous, injury-riddled campaign that tested the entire organization. Key contributors Jimmy Butler<\/a> and Moses Moody<\/a> both suffered season-ending injuries. Superstar Stephen Curry<\/a>missed 27 games<\/a> with a right knee injury.<\/p>\n

Kerr still navigated Golden State to a 37-45 record, good for 10th in the Western Conference. The Warriors fought valiantly in the play-in tournament but fell short of securing a postseason spot.<\/p>\n

Kerr stands as one of the most successful coaches of the modern era. His 12-year run with the franchise includes eight playoff appearances, four championships and six NBA Finals appearances. He carries a career record of 604-353 and a 104-48 playoff mark. Golden State won its last championship in 2022 and continues to chase a return to its glory days.<\/p>\n

The Warriors will now look to fill the void left by the departures of assistant coaches Stotts and Stackhouse.<\/p>\n

Former New Orleans Pelicans<\/a> head coach Willie Green is reportedly the top candidate<\/a> to join Kerr’s staff. The roster and coaching personnel may look different next season. But through all the change, Kerr will be there to steady the ship.<\/p>\n
