Minnesota Timberwolves: Why sticking with Ryan Saunders is the best option
After serving as interim head coach for the Minnesota Timberwolves last season, Ryan Saunders could be the best option to be the head coach going forward.
Ryan Saunders has been on the Minnesota Timberwolves coaching staff since 2014, mainly as an assistant coach. After a 19-21 record to start the 2018-19 season, the Timberwolves parted ways with head coach Tom Thibodeau who had been with the team since 2016.
Upon the firing of Thibodeau, Saunders was immediately promoted to interim head coach. This would make him the youngest active head coach in the entire NBA. At just 33 years old, Saunders would look to become the next young head coach success story.
