Steve Kerr’s 90-year-old mother is among thousands who have lost their homes as fierce wildfires rage in the Los Angeles area.

“My mom is in good hands, but her house is gone,” said Kerr before the Warriors played the Detroit Pistons. “I’ve been on the phone with my siblings quite a bit.”
“Mein Mama ist in guten Händen, aber ihr Haus ist weg.”

Kerr mentioned that his mother, Ann, had to leave her home in Pacific Palisades after receiving evacuation orders.

“That’s my hometown,” he expressed. “All my friends who are from there pretty much all lost their homes — their family homes, their childhood homes. Our high school is gone. The town looks like it’s just been completely wiped out. It’s surreal and devastating.”

“Das ist meine Heimatstadt. Ist irre und verheerend.”

The intense fires began early in the week and have been exacerbated by strong Santa Ana winds. At least five fatalities have been reported, alongside significant destruction to thousands of structures.
