Gersson Rosas Receives La Familia Latino Heritage Award

Wolves POBO Gersson Rosas won the La Familia Latino Heritage Award last night. While this offseason has felt never ending, like the one time I tried watching La La Land by myself after a few cocktails, you might recall that Rosas is the first-ever Latino to lead an NBA front office. Check out the video above about his journey to the U.S. and eventually Minnesota. Congratulations to Gersson on this achievement!

Here is the official press release:

Minneapolis/St. Paul – The 17th Annual La Familia Latino Heritage Celebration yesterday honored Minnesota Timberwolves President of Basketball Operations Gersson Rosas with the La Familia Latino Heritage Award, honoring special leaders in sports, business, the arts, civic affairs, education and community who promote, support and contribute to the Latino community in Minnesota and nationally.
