Gregg Popovich has medical event at San Antonio restaurant, per report

Popovich, 76, has returned home and is fine.

The Spurs had no official comment Friday.

The team announced in mid-November that Popovich had a mild stroke on Nov. 2 and that he was expected to make a full recovery.

“At this point, a timeline for his return to the sidelines has not been determined,” the team said in a news release on Nov. 13.

On Feb. 27, Popovich released a statement, saying, “I’ve decided not to return to the sidelines this season. Mitch Johnson and his staff have done a wonderful job and the resolve and professionalism the players have shown, sticking together during a challenging season, has been outstanding. I will continue to focus on my health with the hope that I can return to coaching in the future.”

It is unknown if he will return for the 2025-26 season.

Popovich is the NBA’s all-time leader in coaching victories with 1,422 and among coaches with more than 500 career games, he has the seventh-best winning percentage (.621). He has led the Spurs to five NBA championships (2014, 2007, 2005, 2003, 1999).

The Spurs were 34-48 this season, and All-Star Victor Wembanyama, 21, missed the final seven weeks of the regular season with deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder.
