The Sacramento Kings are finalizing a deal to hire longtime NBA executive Scott Perry as their new general manager, sources told ESPN.
Perry, who started his executive career in 2000 with the Detroit Pistons, spent three months with the Kings in 2017 before leaving for the New York Knicks.
Perry will replace Monte McNair, who is out as Kings GM after the sides mutually agreed to his departure following Wednesday' night's season-ending loss to the Dallas Mavericks in the play-in tournament.
Perry also has worked in front-office roles with the Orlando Magic and the then-Seattle SuperSonics.
