Whenever someone asks to compare a young Jason Kidd to a young Luka Doncic, Kidd is quick to smile and set the record straight.

“At 22, he’s way better than I was at that age,” Kidd told Mavs. com. “Do I wish I was Luka? Yes.

“I wish I was that tall and that strong.”

Actually, Kidd did make the first of his 10 All-Star appearances in his second season with the Dallas Mavericks – when he was 22 years old. At the same age, Doncic already had two All-Star appearances and had already established himself as one of the top three players in the NBA.
