LJ Ellis: Gregg Popovich expected to re-sign for 3 years at $14-million per year
Don’t expect an official announcement but the front office is operating as if Popovich will return to the sidelines for at least one more season. A couple sources I’ve discussed this with believe that the addition of Wembanyama could help convince the coaching legend to stick around for a while longer.
Popovich’s latest contract expired after the 2023 season. According to a team source, if and when he officially decides to return, Popovich is expected to sign a three-year contract that will pay him in the neighborhood of $14 million per year. The contract will also allow him to opt out after either of the first two seasons.
You're viewing a single thread.
I don’t think Pop will ever retire.
He's just going to take the Ichiro approach
If he ever does retire from coaching, you think he stays active with the front office or just comes and goes like Duncan?
I think he's involved deeply for as long as he can. Front office probably.
I hope he never does.
