Addressing the media before his team's Tuesday showcase against the Toronto Raptors, the Warriors head coach didn't hide his disappointment about Butler's absence for the remainder of the 2025-26 due to a torn ACL injury.
"Just disappointed for Jimmy," Kerr said, "He's having a great year. I felt like the last couple of weeks, he's really at the top of his game. So for him and for us, obviously, for him individually, in the middle of a really great season with a lot of possibilities, a lot of excitement with the team, the way we're playing, I just feel terrible for him. He's going to miss the rest of the year.
"It's just part of the game, I know, injuries are part of it, but it hurts for sure."
