SAN FRANCISCO – Steve Kerr’s son is the newest member of the Warriors’ NBA coaching staff.
Nicholas Kerr is joining the NBA team’s coaching staff after spending the past two seasons as the head coach of the Santa Cruz Warriors in the G League.
Santa Cruz went 20-14 in each of his two seasons in charge, making the postseason during both campaigns. Before that, Kerr was an assistant coach in Santa Cruz from 2021-23.
“Congratulations to Nicholas Kerr for being called up to rejoin the warriors staff,” the Santa Cruz Warriors account posted on Instagram.
Lainn Wilson, Golden State’s head video coordinator for each of the past four seasons, was named Santa Cruz’s next head coach.
Before working in Santa Cruz, Kerr was an assistant coach on his father’s staff from 2018-21. He was a video coordinator and worked in player development during his time in the NBA.
Kerr, 32, played college basketball at San Diego and Cal from 2011-16.
The new coach joins a team that went 48-34 during the regular season, and was bounced from the playoffs in the second round by the Timberwolves.

Nicholas Kerr. Glad they went with the full name on that one.
What is his name again?
Nepotism Nick
Nepo franchise late June 2025 lakers could never
Steve Kerr really could’ve chosen any first name he wanted for his son lmao
Analysis should take caution in pronouncing “Nick Kerr” cause that’s gonna be rode all over the internet for about 2 months atleast
Shocking.
Steve kerr is an all time great jerker for calling his son nick lol.
Somewhere Colin Jost still wishes Michael Che didn’t write that joke and make him say it live
I think it’s best we call him Nicholas
say his real name coward.
Can’t believe they announced this on the eve of Juneteenth.
Nepo
Truly forging his own path, amazing story of hard work, grit, and determination.
This is leading me to think that he is going to take over Steve Kerr’s job after he retires.
Thankfully he didn’t play NBA basketball otherwise those announcers would not be having a good time
The job market is tough. What can you do? Just gotta call up daddy for help. Lucky guy.
Nepo baby!!!!
I like Nick Kerr, but I wouldn’t say I’m a Nick Kerr lover.
Send da Kerr package.
I went to a game in Boston and they kept screaming this guy’s name. I was like why do they keep calling the players our coach’s son? Also thought it was weird they were screaming it all over the city, too.
If they didn’t think about this man one day being called nick kerr they are either very racist or very ignorant but it gotta be one
Why don’t they call him Nick?
Call him by what he actually goes by you cowards!
Warriors media day is about to turn into a Chappelle show sketch
