The Mavericks have signed coach Jason Kidd to a multiyear contract extension, according to a report from NBA insider Marc Stein.
This is the second time in as many years that Kidd has earned a contract extension from the franchise. Two summers ago, it was due to interest from the Lakers in having Kidd come coach LeBron James & Co. This summer, it was the Knicks who came calling. Dallas denied permission for New York to interview Kidd.
