Kerr has led the Warriors to two impressive wins, the first one a 70-58 win over the Charlotte Hornets on Friday.
The second was a 74-72 win over the Phoenix Suns, thanks to a Justin Holiday offensive rebound and layup with three seconds left in the game.

The Lakers lost to the Toronto Raptors 88-78 in their first game, and in their second game against the New Orleans Pelicans, they lost 90-73.
