DALLAS — Beginning with Thursday night’s game against Golden State, the Mavericks have potentially 10 regular season home wins remaining. Coach Jason Kidd would like nothing better than for his wallet to be $50,000 lighter come playoff time in April.
Because if that happens, it not only would mean the Mavericks won all 10 games, but that Kidd will have maxed his financial commitment to his “J-Kidd For The Win” initiative that will benefit three North Texas organizations that are dedicated to youth education and programming.
“We’re talking about winning basketball games,” Kidd said. “But we’re also talking about giving (kids) the opportunity, the tools, to be successful in life.”
