MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — For the second time in three years, Minnesota Timberwolves President David Kahn is heading into an important NBA draft without a coach by his side.

Kahn has yet to make a decision on Kurt Rambis’s future and the coach will not be in Minneapolis for Thursday night’s draft. The Timberwolves hold the No. 2 pick, the highest in franchise history. They also have the 20th pick in the first round.

Kahn said Tuesday that he wants to meet with owner Glen Taylor before making a decision.

The Wolves are considering trading the second pick to add a veteran to a young team. If they don’t, Arizona forward Derrick Williams is expected to be the pick.
