The Minnesota Timberwolves have fired team president and head coach Tom Thibodeau, a league source told ESPN on Sunday.
The Wolves' victory over the Lakers on Sunday raised their home record to 14-6, including 8-2 against Western Conference foes, and overall record to 19-21. They are 11th in the West standings.
The Timberwolves have been playing short-handed of late, with two of their top four scorers in Robert Covington (right knee bone bruise) and Derrick Rose (sprained right ankle) still out with injuries.
Thibodeau ends his tenure as Timberwolves coach with a 97-107 record.
