The Suns had some of the most legendary point guards of the 90’s on their roster, but possibly none as versatile as Jason Kidd. There was almost nothing Kidd couldn’t do on the basketball court and his tenure on the Suns proved just that.
Kidd was named Pac-10 Player of the Year and was consensus first-team All-American in 1994 while at the University of California. This led to the Dallas Mavericks selecting him second overall the following year in the NBA draft.
Kidd’s stellar first season in the league landed him co-Rookie of the Year alongside Hall of Fame classmate Grant Hill.
