The Washington Wizards have made Scott Brooks their top priority as they look for a replacement for Randy Wittman.

Brooks was fired after last season by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Brooks is also a candidate for the Wolves' job.

The Wizards have been preparing for the 2016 offseason for several years to pursue Kevin Durant, who previously played for Brooks. The Wizards' disappointing season is widely believed to have taken them off Durant's list despite being his hometown team.
