Larry Brown To Interview For Timberwolves Job 

After interviewing Rick Adelman and Don Nelson over the weekend,
the Timberwolves intend to interview Larry Brown and possibly one or
two others in this first phase to replace fired coach Kurt Rambis.

When the Wolves will interview Brown, who has coached teams to both NBA
and NCAA titles, is uncertain because of a recent death in his family,
according to a league source with knowledge of the team's search.

If they do, they will have interviewed two coaches among the top six all
time in NBA career victories. Nelson is No. 1 with 1,335. Brown is
No. 6 with 1,098.

The Wolves so far have interviewed Bernie Bickerstaff, Terry Porter,
Mike Woodson, Adelman and Nelson.



Adelman To Interview With Wolves Saturday 

According to league sources, former Houston coach Rick Adelman will be the

toward convincing Love to sign a long-term contract extension.

Love and Adelman's son played on the same Lake Oswego, Ore.,high school team
and Adelman saw nearly every game Love played during his senior season when he



Bernie Bickerstaff To Interview For Wolves Head Coaching Position

Portland assistant coach Bernie Bickerstaff will interview with Minnesota on
Friday for their open head-coaching position. He is the third candidate to
interview this week, after former Phoenix Suns head coach Terry Porter and
former Atlanta Hawks head coach Mike Woodson.

Bickerstaff has extensive head-coaching experience, with stops in Denver,
Seattle, Washington and Charlotte over the last twenty years



Derrick Williams Inks Endorsement With Under Armour

Derrick Williams, who the Minnesota Timberwolves selected with the
second overall pick in last month’s NBA Draft, has signed a multi-year
endorsement deal with Under Armour.

The move is another indication of Under Armour’s aggressive move into the
basketball market, as the Baltimore-based athletic apparel and shoe brand
two weeks ago announced a marketing deal with Bobcats rookie Kemba Walker.

The company also counts Bucks guard Brandon Jennings and Grizzlies guard
Grievis Vasquez among its NBA endorsers.
