Amid speculation about Jason Kidd potentially becoming the head coach of the New York Knicks, the Dallas Mavericks are confident he will stay with the team, aiming for a contract extension due to the Knicks’ interest. Kidd, who has a 179-149 record in his four seasons with the Mavericks and led them to the NBA Finals last year, is reportedly leveraging the Knicks’ interest for a new deal. While the Knicks are searching for a replacement after firing Tom Thibodeau, it seems unlikely that Kidd will move to New York, prompting the Knicks to explore other coaching options.
