The beef began way back in January after Dinwiddie made some comments after losing an away game against the Wizards. Part of the Dallas Mavericks at the time, he said that the Wizards players were trying to get paid on the court instead of playing winning basketball.

The comment sparked a reaction from Kuzma, who said that the Mavs themselves were not playing winning basketball.

Now, the Brooklyn Nets guard went on FanDuel TV where he was asked about Kuzma's comment on Twitter. Dinwiddie responded with a lengthy monologue, quoting Draymond Green's words that insecurity is loud.

"I had bigger fish to fry, get to the playoffs, etc. I'm in the playoffs, he's not," Dinwiddie began.

"There are a lot of guys who have different things that drive and motivate them. If we look at him and the way he approaches life, fame, all that stuff that we can see, his priorities tend to vary," he said. "That's why he dresses the way he does, approaches basketball the way he does, the comments that he makes."

"Like I said with the Draymond [Green] quote, the insecurity is loud. You know that you're there shooting shots, trying to get a contract, you're probably not even the third star really on a good team, because if you were, the Lakers would've kept you," Dinwiddie pushed back. "Part of the reason you left was trying to make more money. These are all things that are facts."

Several hours later, Kuzma posted a thread on Twitter, pushing back against Dinwiddie's comments.

"I'm usually unbothered by things on the internet but I will not allow this delusional guy to continue to talk about my teammates and I," the player began.

"Insecurity is loud?The Wizards & I have so much real estate on Dinshittie island. This guy got signed by a team [for] 60ms and was traded before the following season was over," he continued.

Later on, the Wizards forward answered each of Dinwiddie's points that he made during the segment, finishing the thread with a direct shot at him.

"The only way you'll ever be worth your contract is if the NBA finally gives you your wish of getting paid in crypto *check the markets*," Kuzma concluded, implying that the cryptocurrency has been experiencing a downturn recently.
