Knicks signing GM Scott Perry to multi-year contract extension

The Knicks have agreed to a contract extension with general manager Scott Perry.

The news of the multi-year extension was confirmed to The Post by a league source, and was first reported by The Athletic. The team is not expected to make any statement.

Perry was a holdover from the prior regime, with Steve Mills having pried him away from Sacramento back in 2017. Perry signed forward Julius Randle — who won NBA Most Improved Player and developed into an All-Star this season — and drafted center Mitchell Robinson. Perry was also responsible for the signing of the since-departed Bobby Portis.

But when Mills was relieved of his duties, team president Leon Rose and executive vice president/senior adviser William Wesley kept Perry on as GM.

“Scott worked very well with Leon and Wes,” a league source told The Post. “[They] have a very talented and experienced front office, and he’s a valuable piece of it.”
