San Antonio Spurs assistant Becky Hammon has long been thought of to become the first female head coach in NBA history and on Thursday, she made it clear that she’s ready for the next step.
She’s served on Gregg Popovich’s bench since 2014, led the team in the NBA Summer League and subbed in for the head coach in December when he was ejected. In a teaser trailer for NBC’s “Inspiring America: The 2021 Inspiration List,” Hammon said she will be ready whenever the moment comes.
