Overview
- The Warriors' two highest‑ranking assistants, Terry Stotts and Jerry Stackhouse, are leaving after their contracts expired, ESPN reported Friday.
- Both coaches spent two seasons on Steve Kerr’s bench and are pursuing head‑coaching jobs, with Stotts telling ESPN he informed Kerr late in the regular season and left on good terms.
- Golden State has opened a search for replacements, with former Pelicans head coach Willie Green named as a candidate by ESPN, while Andre Iguodala has been mentioned speculatively by a reporter on X.
- Kris Weems is expected to remain after being elevated when longtime assistant Chris DeMarco left in January to coach the WNBA’s New York Liberty.
- After signing a two‑year extension last week, Kerr said Friday he must tighten discipline and cut turnovers, as the front office prepares to add younger legs and weighs options with the No. 11 pick.
