Steve Kerr has had a picture perfect career so far. Not only has he won five championships as a role player, he’s also continued his success as a coach, winning four championships with the Golden State Warriors.

During an appearance on NBC’s Sports Uncovered podcast, the Warriors coach opened up about how his experience playing with Jordan impacted the trajectory of his career, also saying that he owes everything to Jordan:

 

“It completely changed the rest of my life. Playing with Michael Jordan changed the entire course of my career.

I was able to play on these championship teams, made a name for myself, was able to get into TV, broadcasting, management, coaching and the reason people hired for me these jobs later on is because I played next to Michael Jordan.

I owe him everything.”
