Warriors' NBA championship 'drought' now longest of Steve Kerr era

The Warriors have known for some time they wouldn't return to the NBA Finals this year, considering they were officially eliminated from playoff contention before the league suspended the season due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Yet Golden State recently reached a milestone it hasn't hit since Steve Kerr was hired as head coach. Monday marked the two-year anniversary of the Warriors' last championship, and Golden State officially surpassed the longest title "drought" of Kerr's time on the sidelines late last week.

Previously, the Warriors had gone 729 days in between winning the Larry O'Brien trophy in 2015 and 2017.
