Just two short weeks after being hired as the new President of Basketball Operations for the Minnesota Timberwolves, Tim Connelly has already made his second major addition to the team’s front office:
The Timberwolves are finalizing an agreement with Dell Demps to join Tim Connelly’s front office staff, sources tell @ShamsCharania and me. Demps will work closely with Connelly, Sachin Gupta, Matt Lloyd, Joe Branch and Manny Rohan as the draft looms

As our good friend Jon Krawczynski added in a follow-up tweet, Dell Demps was the General Manager for the New Orleans Pelicans for nine years, and during that time he actually hired Tim Connelly to be his Assistant GM in 2010 before TC eventually left for his most recent gig with the Denver Nuggets.
