The Washington Wizards announced Thursday morning that Wes Unseld Jr. would be leaving his job as the team's head coach and transitioning to a front office role.

After losing to the Minnesota Timberwolves at home Wednesday night, the Wizards are 7-36 this season, the league's second-worst record -- ahead of only the Detroit Pistons (5-39).

The Wizards, who host the Utah Jazz Thursday night, said in a statement they'll be naming an interim coach later Thursday.
