Warriors coach Steve Kerr refused to talk about basketball before the team’s playoff game against the Mavericks in wake of the Texas elementary school shooting that occurred hours before. 

“Since we left shoot-around, 14 children were killed 400 miles from here and a teacher. And in the last 10 days, we’ve had elderly Black people killed in a supermarket in Buffalo, we’ve had Asian churchgoers killed in southern California, and now we have children murdered at school.”
