Overview
- Frank Vogel will join Jason Kidd’s staff as associate head coach, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania report on July 2.
- Since October 2024, Vogel has served as a coaching consultant in Dallas and this marks his first full-time coaching role with the Mavericks.
- The move reunites Vogel and Kidd, who won the 2020 NBA championship together in Los Angeles, but now reverses their previous coaching hierarchy.
- Dallas has reshaped its lineup after trading Luka Doncic to the Lakers last season and selecting Duke’s Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 pick in June.
- Jason Kidd is expected to sign a contract extension with the Mavericks, solidifying the revamped coaching structure.
