2023年12月8日，德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥，霜冻银行中心，圣安东尼奥马刺队主教练格雷格·波波维奇对第二节对阵芝加哥公牛队的比赛中裁判对马刺队的犯规判罚表示不满。公牛队以121-112击败马刺队。
马刺队主教练格雷格·波波维奇(Gregg Popovich)预计将缺席本赛季剩余的比赛，而且这位NBA历史上胜场最多、年龄最大的教练在11月初因轻微中风进入医疗休假后，是否会重返赛场仍然不确定。
ESPN的沙姆斯·查拉尼亚（Shams Charania）周六晚上报道说，波波维奇作为马刺队导师的未来“不确定”，这位76岁的老人在11月2日马刺队对阵明尼苏达森林狼队的比赛前几个小时遭受中风后正在康复。预计波波维奇将完全康复，但当时球队官员无法确定他是否会重返教练岗位。
上个月，马刺队首席执行官R.C.布福德(R.C. Buford)表示，“我们预计他会回来”，并补充说波波维奇的康复计划进展顺利。
与此同时，临时主教练米奇·约翰逊(Mitch Johnson)因将球队团结在一起而受到NBA的广泛赞扬。
就在波波维奇的消息传出几天前，马刺队宣布，年仅21岁的现象级中锋维克多·文班亚马(Victor Wembanyama)在被诊断出右肩深静脉血栓后，预计将缺席本赛季剩余的比赛。
波波维奇自1996-97赛季以来一直执教马刺队，带领球队获得五次NBA总冠军。他已经获得了1390场常规赛胜利，并在季后赛中又获得了170场胜利。
马刺队组织尚未对有关波波维奇回归的最新报道发表评论。

Gregg Popovich not expected to return to coach Spurs this season
San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich disagrees with a foul call on the Spurs during the second quarter against the Chicago Bulls at Frost Bank Center on Friday, Dec. 8, 2023, in San Antonio, Texas. The Bulls defeated the Spurs, 121-112.
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich is expected to miss the rest of the season, and it remains uncertain if the most-victorious and oldest NBA coach will return to the game after a mild stroke put him on medical leave in early November.
ESPN’s Shams Charania reported Saturday night that Popovich’s future as the Spurs mentor is “uncertain,” as the 76-year-old recovers from a stroke he suffered hours before the Spurs game against the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Frost Bank Center on Nov. 2. Popovich is expected to make a full recovery, but team officials could not say at the time if he would return to coaching.
Last month, Spurs Chief Executive Officer R.C. Buford said, “We expect him to be back,” adding that Popovich’s rehab program was going well.
Meanwhile, interim head coach Mitch Johnson has drawn praise across the NBA for holding the team together.
The Popovich revelation comes just days after the Spurs announced 21-year-old phenom center, Victor Wembanyama, is expected to miss the rest of the season after being diagnosed with deep vein thrombosis in his right shoulder.
Popovich has coached the Spurs since the 1996-97 season, leading the team to five NBA championships. He has collected 1,390 regular-season victories and an additional 170 wins in the postseason.
The Spurs organization hasn’t commented on the latest report about Popovich’s return.
