Get post publish date inside ACF foreach-CodePudding

In the post loop I have a foreach loop which displays selected team members in the admin(from the "team" custom post type) from an ACF post object.

What I want to achieve is to display the post-publish date inside the foreach.

The problem is that the code echo get_the_date('M d, Y'); shows the date of the "team" custom post type and not the blog post date because is in the foreach.

I tried to pass the post id but it's shows the posts id of the "team" post types and not the actual "post".

How can I show the 'post_type' => 'post' publish post date inside in the foreach?

<?php
$args = array(  
    'post_type' => 'post',
    'post_status' => 'publish',
    'posts_per_page' => 10,
    'orderby' => 'date',
    'order' => 'DSC'
);
$loop = new WP_Query( $args );
    
while ( $loop->have_posts() ) : $loop->the_post(); 

    $postAuthors = get_field('select_post_author'); // ACF post object - custom post type - team
    
    if( $postAuthors ): ?>
        <?php foreach( array_slice($postAuthors, 0, 1) as $post): ?>
            <div >
                <span>
                    <?php
                        echo get_the_date('M d, Y');  // here I want to get the post publish date but it show the publish date of the team post type items
                    ?>
                </span>
            </div><!-- /.post-date -->
    <?php endforeach; ?>
    <?php endif; ?> 

<?php endwhile;
wp_reset_postdata();
?>

Thanks

So the issue is due to $post being a global variable. I assume ACF stores an array of posts for get_field('select_post_author') then you need to change your foreach statement local variable name, e.g:

 <?php foreach( array_slice($postAuthors, 0, 1) as $postAuthor): ?>
     <div >
         <span>
             <?php echo get_the_date('M d, Y', $postAuthor->ID); ?>
         </span>
     </div><!-- /.post-date -->
 <?php endforeach; ?>

I solved the issue by passing the post id in the date.

<?php
$pid = get_the_ID(); //get the post id
$postAuthors = get_field('select_post_author');
 if( $postAuthors ): ?>

Pass the post id in the get_the_date.

echo get_the_date('M d, Y',$pid);
