Steve Kerr Criticizes Referees Over Missed Timeout Call in Warriors' Loss to Nuggets

The Warriors head coach expressed frustration after officials failed to penalize a Nuggets player for signaling a timeout when none were available, contributing to Golden State's fifth straight loss.

  • Golden State Warriors coach Steve Kerr criticized referees for not calling a technical foul on Denver's Christian Braun, who appeared to signal for a timeout when the Nuggets had none left.
  • The missed call occurred in the final seconds of the game, with the Warriors trailing by four points and a technical foul potentially giving them a chance to tie or win the game.
  • Referee crew chief Tyler Ford stated that Braun's signal was not clear enough to warrant a timeout call, a decision Kerr strongly disagreed with during his postgame comments.
  • The Warriors blew an 11-point lead late in the game, with Nikola Jokic leading the Nuggets' comeback with 38 points, 10 rebounds, and key defensive plays in the final minutes.
  • Golden State's losing streak extended to five games, with Kerr also criticizing his team's execution and decision-making during the stretch of defeats.
