Steve Kerr on Andre Iguodala: 'He's one of the main reasons that we've got those four banners hanging up'
Kerr spoke on Iguodala’s Golden State tenure on Friday evening before the Warriors’ preseason game against the San Antonio Spurs. “He’s one of the main reasons that we’ve got those four banners hanging up,” said Kerr, per the Warriors account on X, formerly known as Twitter. “He was a foundational piece of what has been one of the great runs in NBA history. In many ways, Andre set the tone for the whole thing by agreeing to come off the bench in 2014-15, really sacrificing, and making the move that unlocked the team.”

Gregg Popovich reacts to Steve Kerr saying he was rejuvenated by Wemby: “What was I being rejuvenated from? Was I in a mental institution or was I depressed and curled up in my bedroom or something? Steve’s an a**hole.”

Believe it or not — Andre Iguodala was 1 of my favorite players growing up. Loved his early career in Philly & Denver, then he helped solidify one of the best teams of all time in Golden State. Devastated Boston in ’20. High flyer. A defensive star. Good passer. Salute @Andre – 7:38 PM
