Kerr in an interview with Egyptian outlet FilGoal said that the player he'd like to coach the most is the Milwaukee Bucks superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Steve Kerr has played with and coached many legends. Michael Jordan and Tim Duncan were his teammates, while Stephen Curry and Kevin Durant played for him to name just a few, but Kerr would love to add the Greek Freak to the list.

Kerr, who is a 5-time NBA champion as a player and 4-time as a coach, had a clear answer when he was asked which current NBA player not on the Warriors he would like to coach the most.

"I'd love to coach Giannis. He's a great player, but he also seems like a great person," said Kerr without hesitation.

Kerr, who was born in Beirut, Lebanon, spent several years living in Cairo as a teenager but it has been his first time back since 1985.
