Nets decline Bobby Marks' option

The Nets have declined assistant GM Bobby Marks' option, meaning it's unlikely he'll return to the only employer he's ever known. Marks, who's best known as the Nets' capologist, has worked for the Nets since starting as public relations intern 20 years ago while a student at Marist College.

Mike Mazzeo first reported the news Friday night.

A source familiar with Marks' thinking said he's pursuing other options but has yet to close the door on the Nets.
