Knicks Jazz up front office

Knicks president Leon Rose will add a solid personnel man in longtime Jazz scout Walt Perrin, who will become assistant GM/ college scouting to Scott Perry. The title was previously held by Gerald Madkins, whose future with the organization is in doubt. Madkins’ contract expires in August.

For 19 years, Perrin has been a key college scout with the Jazz, who are known for their excellence in the NBA draft. Utah’s most recent find was nabbing All-Star Donovan Mitchell at No. 13 in the 2017 draft. Perrin has drafted five All-Stars for Utah — Mitchell, Gordon Hayward, Rudy Gobert, Paul Millsap and Deron Williams.

Perrin worked for the Pistons in the mid1990s and early 2000s, alongside Perry. Perry’s contract option for next season was picked up in late April.

“He’s a highly respected scout,” one NBA executive said of Perrin.

Perrin’s last title with Utah was vice president of player personnel. The Knicks will likely have three picks in the top 37 of this year’s draft, including two first-rounders.

Perrin was crucial in setting up workouts for college players while with the Jazz.

“Walt’s done a great job in Utah and I’m proud of him,” Utah’s director of player personnel David Fredman told The Post. “Walt’s strength is relationships. He’s a people’s person. He knows a lot of coaches in the college fraternity — head and assistants. He’s got a great feel for the game. Walt can work with people and upper management.”
