Tom Thibodeau likely to be candidate for both Knicks and Nets

Former Bulls and Timberwolves coach has been linked to both New York teams.

Tom Thibodeau is expected to be a candidate for both the head coaching vacancies of the New York Knicks and Brooklyn Nets, according to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst.

“Thibodeau, I believe, is going to be a candidate for the Knicks’ job as well,” said Windhorst on his podcast. “He’s got a really good working relationship with Leon Rose and Wes Wesley. I know Wes hasn’t been named anything official with the Knicks, but trust me, he will be involved. That connection will matter.”
