David Kahn says there is no truth to rumors that the Timberwolves have picked Mark Jackson as their next coach.

"There's no truth to it," the team's president of basketball operations told the Pioneer Press. "It's a little bit like the Al Jefferson thing. I guess this is, again I've fallen into my editorial comment of the day. I remember in the old days when you actually would get a call from somebody for a confirmation or denial. These days you don't even get that. It's just a different world."  

Pro Basketball News, citing a number of sources, reported that Jackson was the leading candidate for Minnesota's vacant head coaching job.

"My stance is the same," Kahn said. "No list, no nothing until after the draft is over."
