Despite health problems, Gregg Popovich continued to share his infinite wisdom. As team president San Antonio Spurshe still has a strong influence, and it is no coincidence that they are doing so well this season.

The Spurs have the third best record in the NBA with 33-16, and on Sunday they beat the Orlando Magic with 112-103. Next on the calendar for them are Oklahoma City Thunder, whom they have already beaten three times.

Ahead of their fifth meeting on Wednesday, Popovic was surprising presence at Spurs training.

“Hall of Famer Gregg Popovich was at practice this morning, seen spending one-on-one time with Victor Vembanjam, Julian Champagne and his successor, Mitch Johnson,” KENS’ Nate Ryan reported on the 5th.

“Coach Pop turned 77 last week. Great to see him in good spirits and interacting with the guys!”

Fans were also delighted to see the legendary mentor.

“Pop’s commitment is second to none. Succession plan and player development. A legend,” he said @Glitchimagic.

“Looks a lot better than last time! I’m glad he’s on the mend,” he added @NotThatJoker.

“He seems to have made a lot of progress,” echoed @ChildrenNeedUs_.

“I LOVE TO SEE THAT!” published @RickP7369.

“I love our team, man. Really, there’s no culture like the Spurs culture.” commented @Pannest.

In May, Popović resigned as coach due to health problems after a mild stroke. He led the game for Spurs for 29 seasons, leading them to five titles. He is the all-time leader in regular season wins with 1,309.

We hope that Popović will be able to sit on the bench in one of the Spurs games.
