Warriors coach Steve Kerr receives contract extension

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr has received a contract extension following the franchise's repeat championship and third title in four years during his tenure.

Kerr and general manager Bob Myers, who are close friends and colleagues, said when the season ended that something would get done quickly once they began formal discussions. Kerr had one year remaining on his original $25 million, five-year contract. Details of the extension were not announced Tuesday.

ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported late last month that the Warriors had agreed to an extension with Kerr, one that made him one of the NBA's highest-paid coaches.
