Jason Kidd will interview for New York Knicks HC job (Report)

According to Marc Stein of the New York Times, the New York Knicks were recently given permission by the Los Angeles Lakers to interview Jason Kidd. The current Lakers assistant is the 11th known candidate who will interview.

Kidd played for the Knicks during his final season in the NBA. Following his retirement, he immediately joined the coaching ranks, taking over as head coach of the Brooklyn Nets. A fallout with Nets management meant Kidd was leaving Brooklyn for the Milwaukee Bucks after just one season.

After a few seasons of mediocrity, Kidd was fired in the middle of the 2017-18 season.
