In a historic moment for the Golden State Warriors, head coach Steve Kerr became the franchise's all-time winningest coach by securing his 558th regular-season win, surpassing Al Attles. After a closely fought game against the New York Knicks, Kerr received the game ball presented by the Attles family, honoring Attles' legacy and significant contributions to the team. Kerr reflected on the achievement as a testament to the franchise's stability and talent over the years, showing deep respect for Attles, who was a pivotal figure in the team's history.
"It was a great moment being awarded the game ball by the Attles family," Kerr said. "It was really beautiful to be honored by their presence, and obviously Al Attles is Mr. Warrior forever."
"The record, it's kind of surreal to even think that this could happen, but it's a reflection of our organizational strength, stability and a talent level over the last 11 years since I've been here."
Attles, a Hall of Famer, spent more than six decades with the Warriors as a player, coach and executive. He was head coach for 14 years and led the Warriors to their first championship in 1975.
