On This Date in Minnesota History: May 5

May 5, 2000 – Portland Trail Blazers assistant coach Bill Musselman died in the morning from complications from amyloidosis, a disease affecting the liver. He was at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

“A moment of silence was observed at the Rose Garden on Sunday, May 7 before the Trail Blazers’ 94-75 victory over Utah in Game 1 of their Western Conference semifinal series.

“The 59-year-old Musselman, a former NBA head coach with the Minnesota Timberwolves, was in his third season with the Blazers.”

From 1971 – 1975, Musselman coached the University of Minnesota Gophers, including players Flip Saunders,
Mychal Thompson, Mark Landsberger and Mark Olberding.
