In medical news that proves to have huge implications for the remainder of the Golden State Warriors-Memphis Grizzlies second-round series, Coach Steve Kerr didn’t fly to Memphis with the rest of the team today, casting serious doubt on his availability to coach in Game 5 on Wednesday night. Kerr would be replaced for a second straight game by lead assistant and Sacramento Kings coach-elect Mike Brown, who ran his Warriors playoff record to 12-0 with a win in Game 4. Also Ja Morant is out for the playoffs with a bone bruise.
