The Brooklyn Nets hired Sean Marks as general manager but they will still seek a big name head coach and free agents in the offseason.
Marks comes from the San Antonio Spurs, who have followed a different path historically, albeit with Tim Duncan as the anchor of the team.
The Nets have previously been linked to Tom Thibodeau and John Calipari. Calipari is less likely to leave Kentucky for the NBA without full control of the basketball operations.
With Marks getting the job, however, the Nets could also pursue Ettore Messina or Ime Udoka.
