Steve Kerr explains Warriors’ decision to waive Omri Casspi

PHOENIX — Before Sunday evening's game against the Suns, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr detailed the reasoning behind the team's decision to waive forward Omri Casspi a week before the playoffs Saturday. "It actually wasn't a difficult decision because he was injured," Kerr said of Casspi, who missed his final 11 games with Golden State with a sprained right ankle. "But it was difficult to go ahead and go through with it because he's been with us all season long. We love Omri and what he brought to the team. "It was difficult to sit with him and tell him we were going to do this, but it was the only decision we could make under the circumstances.
