On the final day of the regular season, the Timberwolves and owner Glen Taylor announced they would seek to hire a new president of basketball operations. In a process that lasted nearly a month, the Wolves landed on Gersson Rosas, who has worked the past 16 years for the Houston Rockets, with a brief stopover in Dallas in a three-month stint as Mavericks general manager.
Rosas will now begin the process of making over the Wolves in his image. Some decisions will require his immediate attention. Some will be more long term and come incrementally over multiple seasons.
