Remember current Dallas Maverick point guard Jason Kidd’s former girlfriend, pin-up model Hope Dworaczyk? Back in 2008, she was rumored to be pregnant with Mr. Kidd’s child. It ultimately turned out to be a hoax since Kidd later fathered a child with another model, Porschla Coleman. Hope and Jason even made it onto our Top 15 Hottest Wives/Girlfriends List. Thankfully for us, Jason didn’t ruin her since she will be gracing the cover of the June issue of Playboy magazine, albeit in 3-D, as the 2010 Playmate of the Year.
What a life this Jason Kidd is living as an elder statesman on the Mavericks, to be able to move on from a Playmate of the Year……to another model. That’s why we shouldn’t feel too bad for Kidd and his Mavs teammates who are looking at an uncertain future after a 1st round flame-out at the hands of the San Antonio Spurs this post-season.
Although he is arguably one of the best point guards of his generation, could Kidd be looking over his shoulder at age 37 with the impressive Roddy Beaubois coming on strong near the tail end of the season? Will Dirk Nowitzki choose to opt out of his contract and become a free agent this Summer? If Dirk leaves, will Mark Cuban be able to jump into the Lebron James sweepstakes?
While Kidd’s current team may be full of more questions than answers at this point, one thing is for certain that Kidd has nothing to hang his head at since he ranks 3rd all-time in triple-doubles and is rapidly moving up the all-time assist and steal lists, while playing in double digit All Star Games. He also earned a 1st Team selection on our 2000’s All Decade Teams. His only hang-up may be that he has never won an NBA Title.
And just think, he is in such a good place in his personal life to turn down this:
