San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich has announced his intention to return to coaching following a mild stroke he suffered in early November. In a heartfelt statement, he expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from the Spurs community and his family.

While there is no set timeline for his return, doctors are optimistic about his recovery. Popovich, who has led the Spurs to five championships and coached the U.S. team to Olympic gold, acknowledged the challenges of his rehabilitation but remains eager to get back to work.
