The health problem of Gregg Popovich is already known!

The San Antonio Spurs have reported in a statement that on November 2nd, Gregg Popovich, the team's coach, suffered a mild stroke. The news came at a delicate moment for the Texas franchise, on the day they were scheduled to face the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Frost Bank Center, away from home.

Due to this episode, Popovich has been absent from coaching and is undergoing a rehabilitation process, although his return to the basketball courts does not have a specific date yet.

The official announcement regarding Popovich's health status highlighted that, despite the seriousness of the situation, a full recovery is expected. However, the team has not given any indication of a possible return date, and while a comeback this season is not ruled out, it may be until next season when he resumes his role leading the Spurs.

Meanwhile, one of his assistants, Mitch Johnson, has taken on the role of interim coach. In the six games under Johnson’s direction, the Spurs have achieved a record of 3-3, a balanced outcome while Popovich strives to recover as soon as possible.
