The Knicks are finalizing a deal to bolster their front office by adding veteran NBA executive Walt Perrin, according to a league source.
Leon Rose, who was named team president March 2, added Brock Aller earlier this month to serve as chief strategist, specializing in helping with the salary cap. In Perrin, Rose lands a seasoned scouting presence.
Perrin is expected to serve as assistant general manager. He worked for the Utah Jazz the last 19 years as vice president of player personnel.
The addition is not yet official and was first reported by The Athletic.
