Nets Promote Makar Gevorkian To Assistant GM

The Nets have promoted Makar Gevorkian to assistant general manager, the team announced today in a press release. For the past two seasons, Gevorkian had held the title of vice president of basketball operations alignment and strategic planning.

“Makar’s strategic, forward-thinking mind, along with his comprehensive knowledge of the league’s salary cap structure, have made him a valued voice within our front office and we are excited to elevate him to this well-earned role,” general manager Sean Marks said in a statement.

Gevorkian has been with the Nets since 2020, having initially been hired as a basketball operations assistant. He worked as a salary cap and strategy associate in 2021/22, then was named Brooklyn’s director of salary cap in 2022. He held that position for two years before getting another promotion.

BJ Johnson and Andy Birdsong are also employed as assistant GMs under Marks in Brooklyn.
