New York, June 2, 2026 — Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said he would be “thrilled” if New York Knicks coach Mike Brown captures his first NBA championship.
Kerr’s comments, reported Tuesday in an exclusive interview, highlight the long relationship between the two coaches. Brown spent several seasons on Kerr’s staff in Golden State, helping build the Warriors’ dynasty before taking over the Knicks.
Brown is now chasing his inaugural title as a head coach, and Kerr expressed appreciation for the role Brown played during the Warriors’ championship run, saying a Knicks victory would be a fitting reward for his former assistant’s years of work.
