Warriors coach can’t believe his eyes as lookalike spotted in stands at preseason game

Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr was visibly taken aback when he spotted his well-known doppelgänger, Steve Gillis, seated in the audience during a preseason matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The incident occurred at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on Tuesday, where Gillis, an English teacher and volleyball academy director, was seen settling into a seat near the Warriors' bench, prompting Kerr to pause and stare in apparent confusion.

This is not the first time the two have crossed paths, as Gillis previously attended a home game against the San Antonio Spurs two years ago, where he exchanged a fist pump with the real Kerr. That earlier visit also drew attention from tennis legend Roger Federer, who posed for multiple selfies with the lookalike.

The current sighting has since gone viral on social media, with fans joking about the coach potentially mistaking his own reflection or questioning why a second Steve was holding a beer in the floor seats.
