Kerr was hired president of basketball operations and general manager of the Phoenix Suns in June 2007 and was one of majority owner Sarver’s closest basketball advisors.

Kerr has long been a proponent of gun regulation, lamenting the government’s woefully weak reaction to school massacres.

Kerr reiterated these points emotionally during a press conference for Game 4 of the NBA’s 2022 Western Conference Finals on May 24, 2022, following the Robb Elementary School shooting in Texas, where 19 children and two teachers were murdered by a body-armor wearing shooter wielding semi-automatic weapons.
