To be honest, when the NY Knicks brought Leon Rose on to be their President of Basketball Operations in March of 2020, I wasn’t too sure what to think.
Obviously, he had a tremendous track record of representing some of the NBA’s elite such as Joel Embiid, Devin Booker, Carmelo Anthony, and so on.
But would he be able to replicate the same success that other former agents like Bob Myers and Rob Pelinka have had before him?
It seems to be the move to make nowadays if you want your team to be built the right way because these guys know what players are actually worth and also have developed incredible relationships with a lot of them over the years.
