Mavs pleased with progress made by rookie Jaden Hardy

PORTLAND – Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd has been very proud of the progress rookie guard Jaden Hardy has

made this season.

After spending most of his playing time this season playing for the Texas Legends in the G League, Hardy has been given some playing time recently during meaningful portions of the game. And he’s delivered.

“He’s done well,” coach Jason Kidd said. ”He’s been a positive. He’s done everything that we’ve ask him to do.”

Known for breaking down opposing defenses by zipping up the court, Hardy gave a six-minute display during Sunday’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers of what he’s all about.
