Steve Kerr is heading to San Antonio to be with the Warriors.

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr will travel with the team ahead of Game 3 and 4 of the Western Conference Finals in San Antonio, general manager Bob Myers told 95.7 The Game. 

“He’s around; that’s better. He wasn’t around; that was worse," Meyers said. "We were dealing with him not being around. The more he’s around, the better.”
