The Warriors' nail-biting 140-137 win over the Utah Jazz on Thursday at
Delta Center marked a massive milestone for head coach Steve Kerr.

The victory is Kerr's 500th career regular-season win as an NBA coach,
becoming the fifth-fastest person to accomplish the feat in league history.

Kerr received a congratulatory message from Spurs coach Gregg Popovich
-- whose 1,377 wins ranks first in NBA history -- welcoming the longtime
Warriors coach into the prestigious 500-win club.

Kerr reached his 500th win in just 764 games, boasting an incredible
.654 regular-season winning percentage in the during his 10 seasons as
the Warriors' coach.

Thursday's win improved Golden State to 27-26 during the 2023-24 NBA
season, but more importantly, gave the Warriors a 2.5 game cushion over
the Jazz for the Western Conference's No. 10 seed -- the final spot in
the Play-In Tournament.
