Jason Kidd is considered one of the best to play the game, however even though he spent four years with the Phoenix Suns, fans don’t consider him among the franchise’s icons.

A byproduct of looking through the over-debated ESPN top 74 players of All-Time list for me was pondering the curious case of Jason Kidd and his relationship with the Phoenix Suns.

Kidd is ranked #35 on this list of greatest players of all time, and even though he played for the Suns four and a half seasons, his name rarely gets mentioned in the Suns’ Ring of Honor snubs.
