On Wednesday, the Minnesota Timberwolves abruptly dismissed President of Basketball Operations Gersson Rosas.
There weren’t many details available at the time, but more information has now emerged regarding why Rosas was fired by majority owner Glen Taylor.
Minnesota Timberwolves: Gersson Rosas oversaw a ‘toxic culture’
WCCO first reported that the primary reason for Rosas’s dismissal was the “toxic culture” that he oversaw.
There hadn’t been much reported on this previously, outside of some mentions on podcasts from local media such as Darren Wolfson (KSTP, SKOR North) and Dane Moore (Dane Moore NBA Podcast) that things weren’t quite as hunky-dory, so to speak, as Rosas and the Wolves would have had us all believe.
