Coach Jason Kidd to return for fifth season with Mavericks, GM Nico Harrison says after NBA Draft
Jason Kidd will be back for his fifth season as the Dallas Mavericks' coach. That's what Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison said Wednesday, hours after his team selected Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 pick. 'Are there rumors still out there about J-Kidd?' Harrison said. 'I thought I shut them down. Yes, he will be the coach next year.' Advertisement The New York Knicks have expressed serious interest in poaching Kidd from the Mavericks. The Knicks, who fired Tom Thibodeau three days after the Indiana Pacers eliminated them from the Eastern Conference finals, formally requested to interview Kidd on June 11. The Harrison-led front office in Dallas swiftly denied that request. Kidd has two years remaining on his contract with the Mavericks. He was part of the franchise's welcoming crew when Flagg did a two-day visit to Dallas the week before the draft. On ESPN's broadcast Wednesday, Flagg said he had positive conversations with Kidd in the lead-up to the draft. 'I think he has a lot of confidence in me to just come in and be an impact player,' Flagg told ESPN. 'He's going to let me have the ball a little, I think, and just try to rock out and do what I can do.' Kidd was one of five known coaches the Knicks asked to interview. The Knicks expressed interest in Ime Udoka (Houston Rockets), Billy Donovan (Chicago Bulls), Chris Finch (Minnesota Timberwolves) and Quin Snyder (Atlanta Hawks). None of those franchises granted the Knicks permission to speak to their coaches. Udoka and Donovan received contract extensions. It remains unclear whether the Mavericks will tack more years onto Kidd's deal, given the Knicks' interest in him. The Mavericks have a 179-149 record in Kidd's four seasons in charge. They made the Western Conference finals in 2022, and in 2024, they won the West before their postseason run came to an end against the Boston Celtics in the NBA Finals. Though Kidd is returning, his coaching staff is expected to look significantly different next season. Sean Sweeney, Kidd's top assistant in Dallas, left to be the San Antonio Spurs' associate head coach. Jared Dudley is a candidate to be an assistant coach with the Memphis Grizzlies and Cleveland Cavaliers, according to league sources. In March, Alex Jensen accepted a job to be the men's basketball coach at Utah. It's also possible Dallas loses God Shammgod, who is a candidate to join Jamahl Mosley's staff with the Orlando Magic. Kidd is expected to speak Friday, when the Mavericks formally introduce Flagg in a news conference in Dallas.

Buffalo Sabres trade Peterka to Utah Mammoth to acquire Kesselring and Doan, AP source says
BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Sabres' long-anticipated offseason retooling began late Wednesday night with the team agreeing to trade forward JJ Peterka to the Utah Mammoth to acquire forward Josh Doan and defenseman Michael Kesselring, a person with direct knowledge of the deal confirmed to The Associated Press. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the deal had not yet been announced by the teams. DailyFaceoff was the first to report the trade. This is a major swap of young players all within their first three seasons of NHL experience. The 23-year-old Peterka is coming off consecutive 25-plus goal seasons, and was scheduled to become a restricted free agent next week. He is anticipated to already be in discussions on a new contract with Utah. Doan, a 23-year-old winger, is the son of longtime Arizona Coyotes star Shane Doan, and his departure is the organization's latest move that separates this Salt Lake City chapter from the past. He had seven goals and 19 points in his rookie season with Utah last year. Kesselring, a 25-year-old defenseman, played alongside Doan for the U.S. when it won the world championships in May for the first time since 1933. He completed his second full NHL season with seven goals and 29 points — both career highs. The Sabres were expected to shake up their roster after a disappointing finish in Lindy Ruff's first season back with the team. Buffalo finished 14th in the Eastern Conference standings and extended its NHL-record playoff drought to a 14th season. The Mammoth, meantime, acquire a promising offensive star while keeping their No. 4 pick in the NHL draft on Friday night. ___ AP NHL:

NBA Draft 2025: Mavericks confirm Jason Kidd will be the team's head coach next season amid Knicks rumors
Though there has been a little speculation this offseason, especially with the New York Knicks job still open, Jason Kidd isn't going anywhere. Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison confirmed on Wednesday night, after the franchise selected Cooper Flagg with the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft, that Kidd would be the team's head coach next season. 'Are there rumors?' Harrison asked, jokingly, via The Dallas Morning News' Mike Curtis . 'I thought I shut those down.' Advertisement Kidd just wrapped up his fourth season as the Mavericks' head coach. He had been linked to the Knicks job briefly after they fired Tom Thibodeau, but the Mavericks denied their request to interview Kidd for the position. Despite the outside rumors, though, the Mavericks had always expected that Kidd would remain with the franchise for the foreseeable future. He is reportedly expected to parlay the Knicks' interest in him into a new contract extension with the Mavericks, too, though specifics on that deal aren't known. Kidd has compiled a 179-149 record with the Mavericks. He led them to the NBA Finals in 2024 when the team still had star Luka Dončić on the roster, too. Advertisement Now, with Kidd apparently locked down, the franchise can turn its attention to kicking off the Flagg era. The consensus National Player of the Year averaged 19.2 points and 7.5 rebounds at Duke last season while leading them to the Final Four. Flagg will have his introductory press conference with Kidd and Harrison on Friday.
