The Washington Wizards finally appear to have their new head coach. On Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported that Denver Nuggets assistant coach Wes Unseld, Jr. was offered the position and final contract details will be done soon. It will be a homecoming for Unseld, because he was an assistant coach for the Wizards from 2005-11 and a scout before then.
A deal will tie together a remarkable homecoming: Unseld’s late father, Wes Unseld, is the most important figure in franchise history -- a Hall of Fame player, coach and executive with Washington. https://t.co/grv6BRHPvp— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) July 16, 2021
