Denver Nuggets president of basketball operations Tim Connelly would reportedly "be delighted" to take the same position with the Washington Wizards if offered the job.
David Aldridge of The Athletic reported "everyone in the NBA" has linked Connelly to the Wizards' position, which became vacant when the team fired Ernie Grunfeld. Connelly's NBA career began as an assistant video coordinator with the Wizards in 1999.
The Wizards have conducted interviews for the opening but have not invited anyone back for a second interview.
Connelly has run the Nuggets' basketball operations since 2013.
