During his 13 NBA seasons, Malik Rose said he always felt a pull toward all the machinations off court. He was always fascinated by front-office dynamics, whether it was scouting or the salary cap.
A year ago, when Rose was a special guest at Spurs Camps, he mentioned that he hoped to work in a front office someday. “I’ve always had a dream of building my own championship team,” Rose said in July of 2015.
A month later, the Atlanta Hawks hired him.
“I spoke that into existence,” Rose joked last week at Las Vegas Summer League.
