Leon Rose, who the Knicks plan to make their next team president, won’t be the first sports agent to transition to the front office. Here are a few examples:
Brodie Van Wagenen: The former CAA baseball agent is hoping his second season with the Mets is better than his first.
Arn Tellem: The current Pistons executive VP counted Kobe Bryant and Reggie Miller among hoops clients, along with Mike Mussina, Hideki Matsui and Chase Utley in baseball.
Bob Myers: Since working with Tellem as an agent for 14 years, Myers has won three championships as general manager of the Warriors.
