Sonoran Hot Reads: Golden State Warriors celebrate NBA Championship

LUUUUUUUUKKKKKKEEEE

That includes Arizona alum and NBA Finals MVP Andre Iguodala getting his. And seriously, look at how big those things are. And then here's the championship banner getting unveiled in the rafters of Oracle.

- Luke Walton will start the season as the team's interim head coach, taking over for another Arizona guy, Steve Kerr. Kerr gave an update on his status before the game
