Jason Kidd is the perfect mentor for Lonzo Ball

Perhaps one of the best selling points when it comes to Jason Kidd as a real coaching candidate for the Los Angeles Lakers is the fact that Kidd was a Hall of Fame point guard, one that was very similar to Lonzo Ball.

Kidd and Ball are both pass-first point guards that are dynamic offensively. Kidd, like Lonzo, impacted the game without relying on scoring. If the Lakers decide to keep and develop Lonzo Ball, Jason Kidd would be the perfect coach to help Lonzo Ball develop his game.

There have already been whispers that Jason Kidd could be a serious candidate for the job, and he might be one of the favorites. Despite what his coaching history might say, Kidd is the perfect next coach for LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers.
