San Antonio Spurs head coach, Gregg Popovich, suffered a mild stroke on November 2, leading to his indefinite absence from coaching duties. The team confirmed that Popovich is expected to make a full recovery and has begun rehabilitation. Assistant coach Mitch Johnson is filling in as head coach during this time. The Spurs expressed gratitude for the community's support and privacy for the Popovich family, while noting no set timeline for his return has been established. Popovich, 75, is the all-time winningest NBA coach with five championships.
