Steve Kerr Loses Childhood Home in Wildfire

Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr has lost his childhood home in the Pacific Palisades wildfires, which have ravaged over 35,000 acres in Los Angeles. Kerr confirmed that his mother safely evacuated, but he described the devastation as 'surreal and devastating,' noting that many friends from his hometown have also lost their family homes. He highlighted the emotional toll of witnessing the destruction of a community filled with lifelong memories, comparing it to the tragic Lahaina fires of 2023. Fellow NBA coach J.J. Redick also announced the loss of his home due to the fires, as did Clippers star Kawhi Leonard, whose family had to evacuate. At least 10 fatalities have been confirmed amid the ongoing crisis, with nearly 180,000 residents evacuated as fires continue to threaten the area.
