The San Antonio Spurs are planning to bring in Billy Donovan as their lead assistant coach, according to multiple reports. The Athletic and Yahoo Sports both say the team will add Donovan to its coaching staff in a lead assistant role. Donovan is a former NBA head coach with coaching experience across several teams, including the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Chicago Bulls. One report also notes his overall record during 11 NBA seasons as a head coach, citing a 469-413 win-loss mark and six playoff appearances. The outlets frame the move as Donovan joining the Spurs’ staff rather than taking a head-coaching position. Terms of the agreement, the start date, and specific responsibilities within the Spurs organization are not detailed in the provided summaries. The reports also do not indicate whether the hire affects any existing staff roles beyond Donovan’s addition. Overall, the sources agree on the identity of the coach and the role he is expected to assume with San Antonio.
