Nets restock front office with familiar faces
Add Hawks’ Peterson, Spurs’ Birdsong as assistant general managers
With the NBA Draft three weeks away and a critical free agent signing period looming soon thereafter, the Brooklyn Nets spent Memorial Day weekend restocking their front office.
After losing assistant general manager Trajan Langdon to the New Orleans Pelicans earlier this month, the Nets countered by hiring a pair of executives that Brooklyn general manager Sean Marks and head coach Kenny Atkinson are both quite familiar with.
On Saturday, Marks announced the addition of Atlanta Hawks assistant GM Jeff Peterson to serve in the same capacity here, and tacked on Spurs director of player personnel Andy Birdsong as a second assistant GM.
