Spurs coach Gregg Popovich cheered the Texas Supreme Court’s decision late Thursday night to pause the execution of an autistic man who was scheduled to be put to death. With hours to spare before Robert Roberson was set to be put to death, the court granted a temporary reprieve in response to an extraordinary action by a Texas House committee. The committee, comprised of both Democrats and Republicans, subpoenaed the 57-year-old Roberson to testify before the panel, a move made in hopes of delaying his scheduled lethal injection.
