Where does Steve Kerr's Liverpool FC fandom come from?
Goal.com reported the Liverpool connection, quoting an ESPN interview in which Steve Kerr says, "So, I've been a Liverpool fan ever since." The words are Kerr's own, though they reach readers through Goal.com, and no date is given for the interview.
Kerr was born in Beirut, Lebanon, on September 27, 1965. He attended Palisades High School in Pacific Palisades, California, and played college basketball at Arizona from 1983 to 1988. Phoenix drafted him in the second round, 50th overall, in 1988, and he played in the NBA through 2003 for the Suns, Cavaliers, Magic, Bulls, Spurs and Trail Blazers. None of those places connects to Liverpool, so the club is a stated favorite and not a hometown or career tie.
