""Ultimately it was kind of between here and Boston," Kornet said. "I feel like after a lot of conversations with my wife and just feeling like, honestly, a lot of prayer and realization of where we are in life.""
""It was very, very difficult to leave a lot of different relationships," he added. "But, just kind of feeling like we're in a different part of life and being open to wherever God kind of willed us and I feel like that's just where it took us. You just kind of accept it and take that step forward and try to keep figuring it out from there.""
""The biggest thing that stands out about Luke is that I miss going to mass with him," Mazzulla said. "We used to go to church on the road.""
Luke Kornet signed a four-year, $41 million contract with the San Antonio Spurs after spending multiple seasons with the Boston Celtics organization. Kornet earned a regular rotation role with the Celtics and reached career bests this season with 21 starts and 24.9 minutes per game. The Spurs offer included a substantial raise and an expanded role, which influenced Kornet's decision amid roster and cap considerations. Kornet cited family conversations, prayer, and difficulty leaving relationships as factors in choosing San Antonio. Coach Joe Mazzulla noted Kornet's off-court faith and their shared habit of attending Mass on the road.
