The door is not completely closed on the Knicks and Jason Kidd, per people familiar with the dynamic in Dallas. Other outlets reported as recently as last week that Kidd was still a possibility, and that remains the case as of Monday.Source: SportsNet New York

More on this storyline
Marc Stein: As we’ve been discussing all week on @DLLS_Mavs , GM Nico Harrison and coach Jason Kidd are leading Dallas’ welcoming contingent for Cooper Flagg’s visit, which is the only pre-draft visit that the Duke star is making. -via x.com / June 17, 2025
The Mavericks were not Kidd-ing around when they told the Knicks to look elsewhere for a coach. In case the flailing Knicks get the idea to circle back to the Mavericks about trading for coach Jason Kidd, it has been made clear that he is firmly unavailable — as if the first time they denied the Knicks permission to speak with Kidd while under contract wasn’t clear enough. “I think the most important thing here is the message that the Mavericks sent out here was not that his was a ‘Nah.’ This was a ‘No.’ They are not interested in further negotiations at all – ‘Don’t even call back’ is the message they wanted out there,” ESPN’s Brian Windhorst reported earlier this week. -via New York Post / June 15, 2025
The Dallas Mavericks’ Jason Kidd and the Chicago Bulls’ Billy Donovan are two the New York might circle back to in the coming weeks, according to league sources. The belief around the league is that Kidd and Donovan are looking for contract extensions from their current franchises, and if those don’t materialize, they might be open to joining the Knicks. -via New York Times / June 13, 2025
