"It is only fitting, that after I served loyally for 19 years as Tim Duncan's assistant, that he returns the favor,'' Popovich said in the release.

"We lived on the beach for a few days and we swam and we talked,'' Popovich said at Duncan's retirement ceremony. "From that moment, I knew he was a special individual because he basically talked about everything but basketball. And we've been the recipients of that intelligence and that outlook on life since he's walked in here.''

Heard Dedric is now a Spur. Maybe I can see him if he starts out with Austin Spurs.
Per Matt Tait:
Undrafted in June after an All-American season at Kansas in 2018-19, Lawson reportedly has agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Spurs. This is different than a two-way deal in which a player splits time between the NBA club and its G League affiliate and, in some ways, is better.
Exhibit 10 contracts are basically non-guaranteed, one-year deals worth the league minimum. That number, for a player with 0 years of experience last season was $838,000. Not bad.
