"Eric Housen, our travel man, called Steph and he said, 'Oh, my fault, I'm with Drake and Draymond, we're at the arena still, sorry we're late,' " Kerr told reporters. "We had a team rule at the time, that you could bring a friend on the plane a couple times a year. Unbeknownst to me, Steph decided to use one of his slots for Drake, so Drake got on the plane that night with Draymond and Steph.
"And I fined all three of them for being late, and Drake paid his $500 fine, you can ask him, true story."
