Here’s the San Antonio Express News with some sad news on a former Spurs assistant:
Don Newman, an assistant coach who served on the staff of a pair of Spurs championship teams, has died after a battle with cancer. He was 60.
Newman was a member of coach Gregg Popovich’s staff from 2004-2012, helping the Spurs win titles in 2005 and 2007.
He left the Spurs in 2012 to become the lead assistant under Randy Wittman in Washington, where he remained until 2016.
Newman died Tuesday. Funeral services are pending.
