Here’s the Minneapolis Star Tribune with some Timberwolves news:

Flip Saunders will be the next Timberwolves coach and will be introduced Friday in a news conference.
He confirmed in a text message this morning that he will coach the team but declined further comment until tomorrow.
As far as I know, there is no specified length of time that he’ll coach, although he has suggested before it would only be for a season or two if he did decide to coach.
When it’s all sorted out, Flip’s staff is expected to include former Wolves players Sam Mitchell and Sidney Lowe, although I’m not certain yet if either is a coach-in-waiting to take the job next.
