Jason Kidd has said he wasn’t involved in the Dallas Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers and that Nico Harrison looped in at the eleventh hour.
“The trade was made and J-Kidd says he didn’t know about it until the eleventh hour, I’ll just say my understanding is he didn’t exactly toss himself in front of the oncoming train to try to prevent it from happening,” said Tim MacMahon on The Hoop Collective Podcast.
After the Mavericks traded Doncic for a package led by Anthony Davis, Harrison talked about how he and Kidd shared a vision for the culture they wanted to create with the Mavericks.
