Already deprived of Doug McDermott, Josh Richardson, Jeremy Sochan and Jakob Poeltl for the match against the Pelicans, San Antonio also had to do without his coach, Gregg Popovich. Now 73 years old, the most successful coach in history has indeed suffered a minor medical intervention visibly preventing him from being on the bench with his players.
He thus held his pre-match conference as usual, with the difference that he remained standing. “Coach Pop” then gave the keys to the truck to his first assistant, Brett Brown, who could not prevent the 10th straight loss of the Spurs, penultimate in the Western Conference.
While waiting to be fully recovered, it is still Brett Brown who will coach the next match against Phoenix. Gregg Popovich is expected for the “shock of the dunces” against Houston this Thursday.
