Jason Kidd has officially broken his silence following his departure from the Dallas Mavericks earlier this week.
In an official statement released on social media, Kidd expressed sincere gratitude for his time with the Mavericks and all of the people he got an opportunity to work with along the way.
“The last five years in Dallas have meant more to my family and me than I can fully put into words. .. I want to sincerely thank the Mavericks organization, the players, coaches, staff, front office, ownership and every employee behind the scenes who put their heart into this team every single day. It has been an honor to work alongside so many incredible people," Kidd said.
“To the players, thank you for your trust, your commitment, and the battles we went through together. I am proud of what we built, the relationships formed, and the way you competed night in and night out.
“To the fans, thank you for embracing me and supporting this team with so much passion. Your energy, loyalty, and love for the Mavericks make Dallas one of the truly special places in sports.
"And to the city of Dallas, thank you for welcoming my family and me with open arms. The friendships and memories created here will stay with us forever.”
