The Washington Wizards didn't gain any traction with the possibility of hiring Masai Ujiri to run their front office.

There was a report earlier in the Wizards' search that Ujiri could have some level of interest in the Wizards' job.

The expectations of high salary demands and the necessary compensation to free Ujiri from the Raptors makes a move for him prohibitive.

The Raptors are now one game away from reaching The Finals.

Tim Connelly seriously considered a contract offer from the Washington Wizards before ultimately deciding to remain with the Denver Nuggets.

Connelly and his wife are from the Washington D.C. area, which made the job particularly attractive to him.

Connelly met with the Wizards last week.

The Washington Wizards have interest in Neil Olshey to run their front office.

Olshey has been with the Portland Trail Blazers since 2012.

The Wizards are also considering Danny Ferry, Troy Weaver and Tommy Sheppard. Washington previously offered the job to Tim Connelly before he decided to ultimately remain with the Denver Nuggets.

Olshey agreed to an extension in 2017 that runs through the 20-21 season. Sources believe Olshey is open to considering other options.

Klay Thompson and Bradley Beal were not voted onto any All-NBA Teams and will not be eligible for a supermax this offseason.

Karl-Anthony Towns similarly didn't make an All-NBA Team and his contract will remain a five-year, $158 million deal instead of a five-year, $191 million pact under the Rose rule.

Kemba Walker was a Third Team All-NBA selection and will be eligible for a supermax with his free agency.

The Washington Wizards are expected to shift their front office search back to Troy Weaver, Danny Ferry and Tommy Sheppard.

The Wizards offered their job to Tim Connelly, but he decided to remain with the Denver Nuggets.

Weaver is currently second in command with the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Sheppard is serving as interim general manager following the firing of Ernie Grunfeld.

Tim Connelly will remain with the Denver Nuggets as President of Basketball Operations.

Connelly met with the Washington Wizards to discuss the possibility of being hired for the same job with their franchise.

Connelly is from the Washington D.C. area, which made the opportunity attractive to him.

Josh Kroenke reportedly made "an aggressive case" to retain Connelly once an offer from the Wizards was made.

The Washington Wizards have offered their head front office position to Tim Connelly.

The Wizards received permission from the Denver Nuggets to interview Connelly.

Connelly toured the Wizards' practice facility on Friday while meeting with Ted Leonsis.

Connelly is a native of the Washington D.C. area and has told friends since that returning to D.C. to run the Wizards would be his “dream job.”

The Washington Wizards have been granted permission to interview Tim Connelly for their vacant president of basketball operations position.

The meeting is expected to take place next week.

Connelly, who began his front office career as an intern with the Wizards in 1996, is currently the president of basketball operations for the Nuggets.

The Nuggets are confident that GM Arturas Karnisovas could assume full leadership responsibility should Connelly leave for the Wizards.

The Washington Wizards have interviewed Troy Weaver for a second time.

Weaver first met with the Wizards on April 30th.

Weaver is a native of Washington D.C.

The Wizards have also interviewed Tommy Sheppard, Danny Ferry and Gersson Rosas. Rosas has since been hired to run the front office of the Minnesota Timberwolves.

It is believed Ted Leonsis is waiting on the Denver Nuggets to be eliminated from the playoffs in order to gauge the interest Tim Connelly might have in the job.

Weaver has been Sam Presti's right-hand man with the Oklahoma City Thunder for the past 10 years.

Tim Connelly has been strongly linked to run the front office of the Washington Wizards.

The Wizards parted ways with Ernie Grunfeld shortly before the end of the 18-19 regular season.

According to numerous sources, Connelly "would be delighted" to run the Wizards. Connelly is from Baltimore and he began his NBA career with the franchise in 1999 as an assistant video coordinator.

Connelly, however, won't interview for the job as he already runs the Denver Nuggets.

Industry sources say Connelly received a two-year extension from the Nuggets that pays him more than $2 million per season through 2021. Connelly could join the Wizards if they double his salary. The Nuggets could let Connelly out of his contract to join the Wizards under those conditions.
