Gossip: Jason Kidd
Jason Kidd had an epically bad morning this week.
Jason Kidd had an epically bad morning this week, said the New York Daily News. The recently signed New York Knicks point guard, 39, had reportedly been “pounding vodka” at a swanky club in East Hampton, N.Y. Kidd left the club reeking of alcohol, according to police, and crashed his SUV into a telephone pole at 60 mph. Authorities arrested him on drunk driving charges. After he was booked and released, Kidd was later rushed to the hospital because, sources say, he had a bad reaction to a sleeping pill he took to wind down.
