    San Antonio assistant coach becomes 1st woman to lead NBA team

    San Antonio Spurs assistant coach Becky Hammon became the first woman to lead an NBA team after San Antonio's Gregg Popovich was ejected in the second quarter of a home game against the LA Lakers.

    “Obviously it’s a big deal. It’s a substantial moment,” Hammon told reporters at the post-game press conference.

    According to NBA rules, Popovich was the one to record the loss.
