The Mavericks drafted Jason Kidd in 1994, and watched him win the co-Rookie of the Year award, and make the All-Star team a year later.
But after feuding with young teammates Jim Jackson and Jamal Mashburn, including competing romantic interests with Jackson in pop singer Toni Braxton, Kidd demanded his way out of Dallas, eventually being traded to the Phoenix Suns.
