The Minnesota Timberwolves have named Ernest Scott as head coach of the Iowa Wolves, the team’s G League affiliate. Minnesota also announced the promotion of Nathan Bubes to Assistant Coach and Michael DiBenedetto to Assistant Coach/Director of Operations for the Wolves.

“I am grateful to be named the Head Coach of the Iowa Wolves and represent the Timberwolves organization in the best light possible,” Scott said. “I’m excited to continue being a part of the community in Des Moines and execute the vision and goals of Coach Finch and the Timberwolves in everything we do on and off the court.”

Scott is entering his third season with the Iowa Wolves, first as the head coach after spending the last two as an assistant coach.
