As the Golden State Warriors struggle through a challenging 2024-25 NBA season, speculation has surfaced about Stephen Curry potentially leaving the team. Head coach Steve Kerr has now weighed in, providing a firm response to these rumors.

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr addressed the possibility of star player Steph Curry demanding a trade amidst the team's struggles this season. "I don't think so. I think Steph loves the idea of being a Warrior for life,” Kerr stated during an appearance on 95.7 The Game's Willard & Dibs Show.

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr refuses to appease this Stephen Curry wish from fans despite backlash.

As such, the lack of All-Star-level talent, especially in their prime, has become a glaring hole in the Warriors' roster construction. Right now, they have young and developing players who could become stars and two aging veterans hoping to continue challenging during the twilight of their careers.

After a hot start, the Warriors have regressed mightily and are now battling for a play-in spot in the Western Conference as the season approaches its halfway point.
