At least one source with the Spurs told KSAT-12 Sports that report was inaccurate. There was apparently a very minor issue, but Pop was fine.  

He was on the private charter with the rest of the team scheduled to fly to Charlotte for the Spurs next game against the Hornets Wednesday night.   

Popovich and the Spurs had been in Washington to play the Wizards. The Spurs lost, 101-93.
