"The Wizards & I have so much real estate on Dins**ttie island" - Kyle Kuzma rips into Spencer Dinwiddie on Twitter
Kyle Kuzma and Spencer Dinwiddie have a longstanding beef that likely won't end anytime soon. The Washington Wizards forward unleashed a series of tweets, taking shots at Dinwiddie for some of his recent comments.
When the Dallas Mavericks lost to the Washington Wizards earlier this season, Spencer Dinwiddie claimed that the Wizards just wanted to get paid and that they didn't care about winning games.
Kuzma did not take these comments lying down and responded on Twitter. Kuzma referenced the $54 million contract that Dinwiddie signed two years ago and even took a shot at his last name, calling him "Dins**ttie."
Kuzma also pointed out that Dinwiddie hasn't won anything in his career. For background, the Nets guard has been in the league for nine years and has only played 24 playoff games.
The Nets ended up making the playoffs as the sixth seed in the East and will meet the Philadelphia 76ers in the first round.

However, Kuzma claimed that Dinwiddie wouldn't have made the playoffs if it wasn't for Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant, who helped the team win 34 games before Dinwiddie's arrival.
Kyle Kuzma also posted Dinwiddie's stats during his time with the Wizards.
Kuzma then implied that he is set for a large payday with Washington. The Wizards forward is on an expiring contract and has a player option for the 2023-24 season. However, Washington will likely extend his contract and offer him big money.
Kuzma ended his Twitter rant by making fun of Dinwiddie's involvement in cryptocurrency.
Kyle Kuzma won the championship with the LA Lakers in 2020 after averaging 10.0 points per game in the postseason. He was traded to the Wizards in the summer of 2021, but hasn't been able to make the playoffs since then.

The 6-foot-9 forward is having a career year in the nation's capital, averaging 21.2 points and 7.2 rebounds per game. He's 27, which is why the Wizards will likely look to lock him in for a long-term contract.
