When the Timberwolves and CEO Ethan Casson set out to interview four candidates to fill the vacant president of basketball operations job, Casson said they expected perhaps two of those candidates would advance to an in-person discussion with owner Glen Taylor.
After the Wolves got done with those interviews Monday, Casson and his team convened Tuesday to discuss which candidates might advance. They had only one name in mind — Gersson Rosas, the former Rockets executive who was offered and accepted the job after he and his wife, Susana, visited with Taylor and his wife, Becky, at their home in Mankato.
