Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>Gregg Popovich, a longtime San Antonio Spurs head coach, has suffered from a “mild stroke,” the NBA franchise confirmed on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

In a statement on X, the Spurs said that US national Popovich, a five-time NBA champion with the Western Conference franchise, had a mild stroke on Nov. 2 at the Frost Bank Center, San Antonio’s home court.<\/p>\n

“Popovich, who has already started a rehabilitation program, is expected to make a full recovery. At this point, a timeline for his return to the sidelines has not been determined,” the Spurs added.<\/p>\n

The 75-year-old was named the NBA Coach of the Year in 2003, 2012, and 2014.<\/p>\n

Popovich won Olympic gold with the USA Basketball’s men’s team at the Tokyo 2020.<\/p>\n

One of the best coaches in NBA history, Popovich was inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2023.<\/p>\n

This season Popovich’s Spurs have a 5-6 win\/loss record to be in the 12th spot in the NBA Western Conference standings.<\/p>\n

The Spurs will host the Washington Wizards in a Wednesday NBA game.<\/p>\n
