The Western Conference Semifinals will be a battle of the two most exciting guards in the NBA today, Steph Curry and Anthony Edwards. While Curry may be in the latter stages of his career, Edwards is clearly both the present and the future.

Kerr coached Edwards for Team USA this summer and made an impact with a critique during his workout before the 2020 draft.

Warriors beat reporter Ohm Youngmisuk reported that Kerr thought Game 3 was "the best officiated game of late." Notably, it was Foster's second game back in charge after a long injury absence, and his first time officiating Golden State in the 2025 playoffs.
