When Steve Kerr was a star senior guard at the University of Arizona in 1988, students at a game at rival Arizona State shouted, "PLO, PLO," and "Go back to Beirut" at Kerr.

Kerr's father, Malcolm, the president of the American University of Beirut, had been assassinated by terrorists outside his office a few years before.

Steve Kerr can handle working for the New York Knicks and the media in New York City.
