Dallas Mavericks' Jason Kidd won't rule out return to Nets next season

Free agent to be would back up Deron Williams - or stay in Dallas

"The longevity" might have been longer than we thought.

Jason Kidd finally got his ring elsewhere, after a “migraine” and years of listening to Bruce Ratner’s lip service to an on-again, off-again project in Brooklyn.

But with the Barclays Center nearly finished, Kidd said a final hurrah with the Nets is still a possibility if he doesn’t retire after this season — particularly if it means he’ll back up Deron Williams.

“You can’t rule that out. You have to see what happens,” said Kidd, who like Williams is slated to become a free agent this summer. “First I want to make sure I want to continue playing. But we’ll see what happens here in Dallas. I wouldn’t mind staying here in Dallas if that opportunity presents itself.

“But if Brooklyn presents itself, we’ll see.”
