Steve Kerr says being called out by President Trump was 'surreal'

SAN FRANCISCO -- A day after being called out by name by President Donald Trump in the wake of the NBA's ongoing situation in China, Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr described the situation as 'surreal' while pushing back against the President's comments.

"It was really surprising," Kerr said prior to Thursday's preseason game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. "But mainly just because it was me. Then you stop and you think, this is just every day. This is just another day. I was the shiny object yesterday. There was another one today, there will be a new one tomorrow.
