LOS ANGELES — New Nets general manager Sean Marks comes with the highest recommendations from San Antonio’s Gregg Popovich and R.C. Buford. But they’re his friends and mentors, they’re supposed to do that. The most impressive gushing praise came from Yankees general manager Brian Cashman.

Cashman talked to The Post about New York’s newest general manager, calling him impressive, special, and bound for success. And Cashman should know about success, having helmed the Bombers to four World Series.

“It’s an easy call to make when it’s about Sean Marks,’’ Cashman told The Post.
