During a first round of interviews, it’s important to note that just because someone wasn’t interviewed according to someone’s Twitter doesn’t mean that he or she won’t altogether. Case in point? Denver Nuggets assistant coach Wes Unseld, Jr.
Jeff Zillgitt of USA Today reported that Unseld interviewed with the Wizards today.
Nuggets associate head coach Wes Unseld Jr. interviewed with the Wizards today, I'm told.
His dad, Wes Unseld Sr., played for the Wizards and was a front-office executive and coach for the team.— Jeff Zillgitt (@JeffZillgitt) July 1, 2021Now that we know that Unseld has reportedly interviewed for the head coaching vacancy, the Wizards have now interviewed both of their rumored top targets, the other being Philadelphia 76ers assistant coach Sam Cassell.
