Lewis-Clark State men’s basketball coach Austin Johnson invited by the San Antonio Spurs to be one of its guest coaches in the 2022 NBA Summer League.

Practices, which began Monday, will run until July 5 when the teams travel to Las Vegas and play at the University of Nevada-Las Vegas. Every team will play at least four games from July 7 to 15. The top two teams will play in a championship game on July 17, with the other 28 teams playing an additional game on either July 16 or 17. The Spurs begin their Summer League on July 8 at 2 p.m. Pacific against the Cleveland Cavaliers. 

This is the 15th season the Spurs have invited other coaches to take part in the summer experience, an idea that has spread through many of the teams in the league. Many times those opportunities are given to coaches in foreign leagues or those in the WNBA. (Lewiston Tribune)
