From college to the Hall of Fame, Kidd and Nash constantly joined at the hip

Because they were constantly intertwined when their journey through the world of basketball took so many twists and turns, Jason Kidd and Steve Nash will forever be joined at the hip.

When Kidd was playing college ball at the University of California, that’s when he went up against Nash – who was playing at Santa Clara – for the first time. Fast forward a few years later, and Kidd and Nash wound up as teammates with the Phoenix Suns from 1997-’98.

And fast-forward 20 years later, and Kidd and Nash were both enshrined into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame on the same day in 2018.
