After his contract came to an end at the close of the 2025-26 season, Steve Kerr took the start of the offseason to make a decision on his future as head coach of the Golden State Warriors. On Saturday, three weeks since the Warriors’ offseason began, Kerr and the Warriors reportedly made their highly anticipated decision. According to Anthony Slater, Shams Charania and Ramona Shelbourne of ESPN, the Warriors are running it back at head coach for the upcoming campaign.
Slater, Charania and Shelbourne reported that the Warriors and Kerr have agreed to a new two-year deal to retain the longtime head coach in the Bay Area. Kerr’s new contract will keep him as the league’s highest-paid head coach.
