Jason Kidd Claims Confidently That Luka Doncic Is Comparable to Michael Jordan

It’s always controversial to compare any player to the greatest player of all time, but Jason Kidd isn’t holding back when it comes to Luka Doncic. Following a recent three-game scoring spree in which he averaged 48.7 points, 13.0 assists, and 9.7 rebounds, including a 73-point explosion against the Atlanta Hawks that surpassed Jordan’s career high of 69 points, Kidd boldly declared that Doncic is on par with Michael Jordan. In an interview with 97.1 The Freak’s “The Downbeat,” the Mavericks coach praised Luka’s recent play, claiming that he is comparable to Jordan and superior to Dallas legend Dirk Nowitzki. Jason Kidd shared,“I’ve said this before, and I’ll say this for as long as I’m here, you can’t take this young man for granted,” “He’s better than Dirk, he’s in the atmosphere of MJ, the best to ever do it.”With a career-high 34.7 points, 9.6 assists, and 7.8 rebounds per game, the 24-year-old is having the best season of his brief six-year NBA career. He is helping the Mavericks finish eighth in the Western Conference with a 26-22 record.
