Watch: Warriors’ Steve Kerr delivers emotional response to Texas school shooting

On Tuesday, the Golden State Warriors were set to meet the Dallas Mavericks in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals. However, before the game was set to tip-off, Steve Kerr rightfully didn’t want to talk about basketball.

Just around 350 miles from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, an 18-year-old gunman killed 19 children and two teachers at Robb Elementary in Uvalde, Texas. During his pregame press availability, the Warriors coach addressed Tuesday’s tragedy in Uvalde.
