Tim Duncan on Thursday told that a chance to sit down with Gregg Popovich on Wednesday led him to his decision to return for a 19th season in silver and black.
“Finally had a chance to talk with Pop,” Duncan said, “I’ll be on the court next year.”
Duncan, a two-time Most Valuable Player and three-time NBA Finals MVP, was part of a Spurs contingent that met in Los Angeles on Wednesday with free agent big man LaMarcus Aldridge in an attempt to induce him to sign on with the team.
