The Knicks have shown an affinity for the Timberwolves coaching staff this offseason. First, they asked for permission to speak to Chris Finch for their head coach opening (they were denied permission). Later, they interviewed Wolves head assistant Micah Nori to become their head coach, but they ultimately hired Mike Brown. Now, the Knicks have asked permission to speak with another Timberwolves coach for an assistant coaching role for them, and this time it was granted.
