The Spurs have not announced what the health issue is. ESPN’s Shams Charania reports he “experienced a health situation” before the Timberwolves game.
Johnson said after the game Saturday that Popovich was “not feeling well.”
“This has happened before. I think everybody’s just always got to be ready for the next man up,” he said. “Sometimes people get sick or don’t feel well or things come up in life. He’s just not feeling well.”
