Vinny Del Negro will interview for the Denver Nuggets' head coaching job this weekend, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Del Negro will be the third candidate to meet with Nuggets management for the vacancy.
Former Memphis Grizzlies coach Lionel Hollins and Indiana Pacers assistant Brian Shaw met with team CEO Josh Kroenke and general manager Tim Connelly on Tuesday and Wednesday. Hollins and Shaw are still considered leaders for the job, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.
Despite the Los Angeles Clippers enjoying their best regular season in history with 56 victories, Del Negro, 46, wasn't offered a new contract in April. The Clippers were eliminated in a first-round playoff series against the Grizzlies.
In five seasons as head coach of the Clippers and Chicago Bulls, Del Negro reached the playoffs four times and advanced to the Western Conference semifinals in the 2011-'12 season. He was 210-184 in those years.
Denver fired the NBA's coach of the year, George Karl, after a 57-victory season and a third seed in the Western Conference. Karl didn't want to go into the last year of his contract without an extension, and Kroenke decided to fire him out of fear of a season of unrest between the coach and management.
@WojYahooNBA Denver's pick at 27 is available, teams tell Y! Nuggets open to future 1st, or moving back into 30's. Nuggets like their young roster core.
Word is Brian Shaw looking at Bernie Bickerstaff, Jim Boylan and Tyronn Lue as potential assistants....may look at Alvin Gentry as well

The Nuggets will trade the rights to Rudy Gobert to the Utah Jazz, league source tells Y!
RT @ESPNSteinLine: Hearing Grizzlies have trade in the works: Darrell Arthur and 55th pick will be dealt to Denver for Kosta Koufos

Nuggets brass were not happy George Karl started Koufos ahead of JaVale McGee. Koufos' exit seals the expected: McGee gets to start now
Nuggets took NCAA leading scorer Erick Green with the 46th pick in Round 2. Green worked out for the Nuggets last week..
Erick Green played four seasons at Virginia Tech. He led the nation in scoring last year with an average of 25 points per game - not as easy accomplishment when every team you face is game-planning for you. Green is also a diverse scorer. He took 4.9 three-pointers per game and made them at a 38-percent clip. He shot nearly 50-percent from the field (47.5-percent) and 81-percent from the foul line -- where he was a frequent visitor with 8.3 free throw attempts per game.
He's a RFA, QO was extended to him today. I sure as hell hope he isn't staying if another team decides to give him a stupid offer.Didn't MozGov pick up his option? Or we picked up his option? Either way he's staying.
