SAN ANTONIO – In a podcast Monday, former Spurs player Tim Duncan opened up about his life since retirement, including his new role as father to a newborn.
In the ‘Road Trippin’’ podcast, Duncan spoke with Richard Jefferson, Channing Frye and host Allie Clifton.
A big topic was the birth of his daughter, Quill.
“She is here,” Duncan said, when asked about preparing for his new role. “She was born about a week ago.”
Duncan said his daughter’s name, Quill, was a combination of two things he and his girlfriend appreciate.
He said Quill is a character in "Guardians of the Galaxy" but also Vanessa enjoys writing so the name also harked a quill pen.
Thank you for the love and thoughts welcoming our little soul-changer, Quill.
