The San Antonio Spurs shared some sad news on Wednesday evening.
The team said that Erin Popovich, the wife of Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich, has died.
“We mourn the loss of Erin,” Spurs General Manager RC Buford said in a statement. “She was a strong, wonderful, kind, intelligent woman who provided love, support and humor to all of us.”
The Popovichs were married for four decades and have two children and two grandchildren. Pop credited his wife as being the reason for him treating sideline reporters better.
