Stephen Curry Wants Steve Kerr Back For Warriors

Stephen Curry is publicly pushing for Steve Kerr to stay as Golden State’s coach while Kerr remains in the final year of his contract and has not signed an extension. Guests on the Warriors Plus Minus podcast noted that "Steph wants Steve," and Kerr’s past line "I will never leave Steph Curry" keeps hope alive, even as reports say assistants expect he might not return after recent playoff struggles. Merlin sees a veteran coach stretched thin by nonstop pressure and high expectations. Kerr’s return would buy the Warriors continuity after missing deeper postseason runs, but his leaving would force a delicate search with Curry’s preferences front and center. The coming weeks will reveal whether Kerr chooses to recharge or to remain the Bay’s steady hand.
