Steve Kerr Continues to Speak Out in Wake of Uvalde, Texas Shooting

Editor’s note: This story contains details of a mass casualty event and gun violence.

Just over a week ago, an 18-year-old man shot and killed 21 people, including 19 children, at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas.

In wake of the tragedy, Warriors coach Steve Kerr refused to talk about basketball before the team’s playoff game against the Mavericks that night, making an emotional plea to lawmakers. Now, as they prepare to face the Celtics in Game 1 of the NBA finals on Thursday, he’s using his platform again to speak out.
