The idea that there’s a feud between Jayson Tatum and Steve Kerr was re-litigated on Monday after the Celtics star seemed to snub the Warriors coach of a greeting following Boston’s blowout victory over Golden State.
However, Kerr denied that there’s any rift between the two. Kerr, who coached Tatum on Team USA at the 2024 Olympics and surprisingly benched him for two of its games, shared that he interacted with Tatum following both Celtics-Warriors games this season. He complimented Tatum’s professionalism during an interview with 95.7 The Fan in San Francisco.
“We texted after the game in Boston a couple of months ago and we talked [Monday] night after the game,” Kerr told the “Willard & Dibs” show.
