The Knicks will interview Timberwolves assistant coach Micah Nori for their head coaching vacancy, a source confirmed Tuesday. Nori will be the third person interviewed in the process after the Knicks fired former Wolves coach Tim Thibodeau following their loss in the Eastern Conference finals to Indiana.

Nori, a 27-year NBA veteran, spent 16 as a front-of-the-bench assistant coach with 10 different head coaches, starting with Jay Triano in Toronto, then Dwane Casey in Toronto before joining Mike Malone’s staff in Sacramento and Denver. He then joined Casey in Detroit before spending the last four seasons with Chris Finch in Minnesota.
