“Gregg Popovich will not travel with the team to Los Angeles and Houston,” the Spurs, who face the Clippers on Monday evening then the Rockets on Wednesday, said in a statement without further details.
Popovich, aged 75, was already absent on Saturday for San Antonio’s success against Minnesota (113-103).
According to broadcaster ESPN, Popovich suffered a “health problem before Saturday’s match” and will be replaced as head of the team by his assistant Mitch Johnson “for an indefinite period.”
