When the Warriors and Jazz tip off in the Western Conference Semifinals on Tuesday, Steve Kerr will again be absent from the sideline.

Kerr continues to deal with symptoms related to complications from the back surgery he underwent two years ago. The Warriors are no longer providing daily health updates on his condition and are preparing to play the rest of the playoffs without their head coach.

Mike Brown has taken over Kerr’s duties on an interim basis and will lead the team in Game 1 (and likely Game 2) of the conference semis.
