per Hallman:
After retiring as a player, Brewer moved into coaching and other front office roles.
I first met him when he joined the Minnesota Timberwolves in its inaugural season in late 1990, where he was a scout, player personnel director and an assistant coach. Brewer also served as an assistant coach with Cleveland, Boston and the Los Angeles Clippers, where he worked under his nephew Doc Rivers.
Now retired from basketball, Brewer nonetheless will always be remembered by Gopher fans for his trailblazing moves on the court that transformed The Barn into a rocking place to watch hoops today.
