Summary
Former Dallas Mavericks assistant Igor Kokoškov dropped a bombshell, calling former head coach Jason Kidd “the worst guy in the NBA” — despite praising Kidd as a legendary player. Kokoškov, who coached Luka Dončić to a EuroBasket title and was brought in specifically to work with him, claimed Kidd couldn’t move past their pre-existing bond. Though Kidd publicly praised their chemistry, Kokoškov says he was sidelined and left after just one year — quickly accepting Steve Nash’s offer, calling it an easy decision. The Mavericks still reached the 2024 Finals under Kidd, but Kokoškov’s explosive comments reveal a tense, behind-the-scenes rift that contradicts the team’s on-court success.
