Jason Kidd
He is considered one of the best players of his generation and one of the greatest playmakers in NBA history
Kidd's professional journey began when he was selected second overall by the Dallas Mavericks in the 1994 NBA Draft. He made an immediate impact, earning co-Rookie of the Year honors alongside Grant Hill. After stints with the Phoenix Suns and New Jersey Nets, where he led the Nets to back-to-back NBA Finals appearances in 2002 and 2003, Kidd returned to Dallas in 2008. His leadership and experience were instrumental in the Mavericks' 2011 NBA Championship run, where they defeated the Miami Heat in the Finals. Kidd's ability to control the tempo of the game and make his teammates better was a hallmark of his playing style.
After retiring as a player in 2013, Kidd transitioned into coaching, starting with the Brooklyn Nets. He later coached the Milwaukee Bucks for four seasons, helping to develop young talent like Giannis Antetokounmpo. Kidd's coaching career took another significant step when he joined the Los Angeles Lakers as an assistant coach, where he won an NBA championship in 2020. In 2021, Kidd returned to the Dallas Mavericks as head coach, leading the team to the Western Conference Finals in his first season and later to the 2024 NBA Finals in his third season, further solidifying his reputation as a top-tier coach.
Kidd's legacy is not only defined by his on-court achievements but also by his contributions to the U.S. national team, where he won two Olympic gold medals in 2000 and 2008. His ability to pass, rebound, and defend at an elite level made him one of the most complete players in NBA history. Kidd ranks second all-time in career assists and steals, further cementing his place among the game's legends. His impact on the sport continues to be felt both as a player and a coach, making him a true icon in the world of basketball.
