Jason Kidd is getting into the ownership game.
On Thursday English Premier League club Everton announced that the Dallas Mavericks head coach would be joining the club's ownership group. The announcement comes after Kidd joined Roundhouse Capital Holdings, which is part of The Friedkin Group -- the U.S. firm that completed its takeover of Everton's ownership in December.
The NBA Hall of Famer is far from the first athlete, active or former, to have entered the ownership sphere. Here are other athletes who are now team owners:
Vince Carter, Tracy McGrady, Jozy Altidore -- Buffalo Bills
