Steve Kerr has proven time and time again that he's one of the coolest NBA figures. Even during his playing days, he was very easygoing, while never losing his competitive spirit. 

Now that he coaches the Golden State Warriors, Kerr is older and more mature, but he keeps that juvenile spirit that makes him joke about almost anything. He's a down-to-earth guy that doesn't hesitate to greet fans, even when he's doing family things. Recently, one fan tried to get Kerr's attention by using a photo of the head coach on his cellphone. 

A recent video shows a group of fans and one of them is looking for a Kerr picture to lay his cellphone on the window of a restaurant and see if that got Steve's attention. At first, nobody believed Kerr would notice them, but his family did and instantly brought that matter to his attention. 

Kerr had a great reaction, waving at the fans, before moving his arms effusively to show his excitement. 

This was a wholesome moment, and many fans praised the 3x NBA champion coach, with some telling stories of when they met Kerr, while the rest just celebrated Steve being a cool guy. 

Steve Kerr looks like a highschool math teacher

I'm not a Warrior fan at all, but Steve seems like a really solid person. He makes it hard to root against them.

haha thats so good

celtics in 6

I got to meet Steve Kerr at a Arizona Diamondbacks game. He had a seat right in front of me and was with his children. I wanted to say hi but didn't want to disturb while he was with his children. Then his kids left to go get snacks and got to talk to him and without asking he offered to sign something and I had a baseball he signed 😅. Super nice guy and great to talk to. I am from Boston though and my Celtics need to beat him and the warriors! Go Celts!!

Steve Kerr yelling, " travel, travel...come on!! Travel!!

Met Steve Kerr when he was with PHX, nicest guy ever.

This reminds me of when I was a teacher and the kids would see me somewhere like a restaurant. They just couldn’t believe that I existed outside the classroom

Steve is a cool guy... Still Can't believe MJ punched him...

Extremely hard to hate that man.

I like him. He seems down to earth

He's super cool. I met him years ago at the airport.

How can you not love that man 😂

Met Kerr and he's an approachable regular dude. No surprise here

Steve Kerr is a humble, kind and cool guy! ❤️

This was so cool to watch and we're pretty sure these moments will keep happening knowing how approachable Kerr is. Meanwhile, he's getting ready for Game 6 of the Finals. His Golden State Warriors are one win away from the 2022 NBA championship and hope to close things out in Boston on Thursday night. 

If the Dubs win that game and the series, we'll probably see Kerr do that celebration with his arms, but it's too early to say.
