Steve Kerr has agreed to a new contract with the Golden State Warriors, solidifying his position as the highest-paid head coach in the NBA, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.
Sources confirmed to ESPN that the extension ensures Kerr remains atop the league’s coaching salary hierarchy. Since taking over the Warriors in 2014, the 58-year-old has led the team to four NBA championships, a track record that made the new deal a clear vote of confidence from the franchise.
While specific terms of the contract—including length and total value—have not been disclosed, the annual salary is confirmed to surpass that of every other head coach in the league. Kerr has been instrumental in transforming Golden State into a modern basketball powerhouse, and the extension reflects the organization’s commitment to his leadership.
