“I think individuals look at the season differently than the team record,” Jason Kidd said. “There are quite a few guys playing for extensions, so the business side kicks in. That puts the organization in a position to evaluate with all the changes.” When bringing up an example of that individual growth, Kidd leaned on Naji Marshall. The 28-year-old is playing out his sixth NBA campaign on the second season of a three-year, $27 million contract signed in July 2024.
He is signed through the 2026-27 season, earning $9 million this season and over $9.4 million next season. “Using Naji as an example, he’s doing the right thing, and we have quite a few guys doing that,” Kidd said.
