The San Antonio Spurs announced on Friday that Gregg Popovich would be stepping down from the team as head coach and transitioning into the role of team president.
While Popovich will have an incredible lasting legacy as a coach, the 76-year-old admitted on Monday that he knew it was time to move on from the role. The stroke he suffered in November that kept him sidelined for the rest of the season seemed to be the main reason for his decision.
