Overview

  • The Mavericks announced Tuesday that Jason Kidd agreed to a multi-year contract extension, with the team withholding length and financial terms.
  • The move follows offseason interest from other teams, including the Knicks, whose request to interview Kidd was denied before they hired Mike Brown.
  • Kidd is entering his fifth season in Dallas with a 179-149 record, a 2024 NBA Finals appearance and a 2022 Western Conference finals run.
  • This is his second recent extension with the franchise after a deal agreed during the 2024 playoff run.
  • Team statements framed the agreement as reinforcing continuity as Kidd guides top pick Cooper Flagg and a retooled roster following last season's turbulence.
