More from Givony: Ricky Rubio’s agent Dan Fegan met with Wolves’ David Kahn at the Palms this morning.
NBA Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver and Spanish agent David Carro were also in the meeting, according to Givony.
David Kahn, Minnesota Timberwolves President of Basketball Operations, interviewed Houston Rockets assistant coach Elston Turner Monday as Kahn searches for a new head coach. The Timberwolves are looking for a replacement for Kevin McHale.

Turner said the interview, which “lasted a couple of hours,” took place in Las Vegas where Turner is coaching the Rockets summer league team.

“I thought it was productive,” Turner said in an interview with FOX 26 Sports. “We met and exchanged thoughts and ideas.

“I really enjoyed it.”

Now it is Gomes’ turn to play the role of mentor. This week, he’s offering his knowledge to the Minnesota Timberwolves Summer League team in Las Vegas…
Gomes is not the only ex-Celtic looking to help the Timberwolves have a successful season. He noted Al Jefferson has been diligently rehabbing from ACL surgery to get back in the game as their leading scorer and rebounder.

“He’s doing good. He’s way ahead of schedule,” Gomes said. “He’s training hard and he’s on the court a little bit. We need him back, of course. He’s our All-Star, he’s the motor that goes, so hopefully next year we’ll have a good year.”

Dave McMenamin/HoopsHype on Sunday’s game against Houston:
The Corey Brewer Reclamation Project continues. Brewer, who missed most of last season with a torn ACL in his right knee, finished with a team-high 14 points and a respectable five boards but the former No. 7 pick in the ’07 Draft played out of control on offense, shooting 4-for-11, and didn’t have the control to his game that most established NBA veterans display when matched up against a game full of rookies during Summer League.

The crowd might have oohed and ahhed at Jonny Flynn’s 11-point, seven-assist performance that included a couple of smooth threes and some look-away entry passes into his bigs for dunks, but Flynn wasn’t having any of it.

“I didn’t play up to my standards,” Minnesota’s No. 6 pick in the first round said. Flynn, who wouldn’t blame his performance – 3-for-10 from the field, seven turnovers – on the adjustment of playing off-guard at times with Bobby Brown manning the point, was more upset with his team’s output than his own. “I’m definitely, first and foremost, looking to win. That’s how a point guard gets judged. You can have the best game in the world, but if you’re not winning or you’re not on a winning team, you don’t get looked at … we didn’t win the game. That’s the big thing to me.”
