Gregg Popovich Suffers Medical Emergency At Restaurant, Taken In Ambulance

San Antonio Spurs icon Gregg Popovich was taken to the hospital in an ambulance after a medical emergency at a local restaurant. Video footage shows the 76-year-old being placed on a stretcher outside a steakhouse in San Antonio around 8:20 PM, following reports of him fainting while dining. Sources suggest that Popovich may have been experiencing lingering effects from a mild stroke he had in November, as he had been at the restaurant for nearly two hours before the incident occurred. Fortunately, his condition is reported to be non-life-threatening, and he is now back home and recovering. Popovich had stepped back from his coaching duties to prioritize his health, with assistant Mitch Johnson temporarily taking over. Despite this setback, Popovich remains one of the most successful basketball coaches in history, having led the Spurs to multiple NBA championships and Team USA to Olympic gold in 2020.
