Steve Kerr
He was a member of five NBA World Championship teams; He retired as the all-time leader in three-point shooting percentage for a career (.454)
Kerr's basketball journey began at the University of Arizona, where he played for the Arizona Wildcats. During his college career, he earned first-team all-conference honors twice in the Pac-10 and was named an All-American in his senior year. In the 1987–88 season, Kerr set the NCAA single-season record for three-point field goal percentage, shooting an impressive 57.3%. His performance in college led to his selection by the Phoenix Suns in the second round of the 1988 NBA Draft. Over the course of his 15-year NBA career, Kerr won five NBA championships as a player, three with the Chicago Bulls and two with the San Antonio Spurs, further cementing his legacy as a winner.
After retiring as a player, Kerr transitioned into basketball management and broadcasting. He became a minority owner of the Phoenix Suns in 2004 and later served as the team's president of basketball operations and general manager from 2007 to 2010. Following his tenure with the Suns, Kerr worked as a color commentator for NBA on TNT, where his insightful analysis and deep understanding of the game made him a fan favorite. His time in broadcasting allowed him to stay connected to the game, and in 2014, he made the leap to coaching when he was named head coach of the Golden State Warriors.
Under Kerr's leadership, the Warriors have experienced unprecedented success, reaching the NBA Finals six times and winning four championships in 2015, 2017, 2018, and 2022. His 2015–16 Warriors team set an NBA record by winning 73 games in the regular season, surpassing the previous record held by the 1995–96 Chicago Bulls, a team Kerr played for. His coaching philosophy, which emphasizes ball movement, unselfish play, and three-point shooting, has revolutionized the way the game is played in the modern NBA. Kerr's impact on the sport, both as a player and a coach, is undeniable, and he continues to be a key figure in basketball's evolution.
