The Golden State Warriors planned to give head coach Steve Kerr a third of the 2024-25 season to settle on a starting lineup, according to ESPN's Kendra Andrews.
"The Warriors wanted to use the first 30 games to help coach Steve Kerr to solidify his starting lineup and rotation, a source told ESPN," Andrews wrote.
Kerr opened the season with a 12-man rotation and has since led the Warriors to a 10-3 start.
That record means "there doesn't seem to be too much pressure to cut people out" of the rotation, per Andrews.
