Denver Nuggets assistant coach Wes Unseld Jr. is reportedly set to become the next head coach of the Washington Wizards.
Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reported Friday that the Wizards are finalizing a deal with Unseld.
This comes after ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported on June 16 that Washington and former coach Scott Brooks chose to part ways after they failed to reach an agreement on a contract extension.
His deal expired following the 2020-21 campaign, and the Wizards are now turning in a different direction after his up-and-down tenure.
