Summary
With Gregg Popovich resigning as head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, there is a strong expectation that Mitch Johnson will be appointed as his full-time successor, according to Marc Stein. Having served as an assistant coach for several years, Johnson was elevated to interim head coach in November after Popovich’s stroke. A former Stanford player, Johnson is well-regarded in coaching circles and interviewed for the head coaching position with the Toronto Raptors in 2023.
