The Sacramento Kings introduced Scott Perry as their new general manager, marking his return to the team. SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The Sacramento Kings have turned to a familiar face as they reshape their front office after another early exit for the season.

Interim Kings coach Doug Christie was the subject of the first question posed to Scott Perry when he was introduced as the team’s new general manager Wednesday at Golden 1 Center in Sacramento. Christie has made it clear how much he wants to keep the job after leading the Kings to a 27-24 record over the final 51 games of the regular season despite dealing with injuries and major roster changes.
