LOS ANGELES – Often, Warriors coach Steve Kerr will look at Shaun Livingston and just laugh.
He has inspired his younger teammates for overcoming a broken left leg and knee cap in 2007, an injury that could’ve derailed his NBA career. In the past four seasons, Livingston also has carved out a niche as one of the Warriors’ veteran stalwarts with the reserves. In his 15th NBA season, though, Livingston reported often feeling pain when he has played and when he has missed a combined 12 games with different ailments to his left knee, right foot and neck as well as two others for rest purposes.
