Rick Fox Addresses Spencer Dinwiddie’s Recent Comments

by

Spencer Dinwiddie has been beefing with his former Wizards teammate Kyle Kuzma in recent days. Things kicked off when Kuzma dropped a poorly-received joke about Lauri Markkanen’s impending Finnish military service. Dinwiddie inserted himself into the situation with a blistering interview on FanDuel. Kuzma responded with a Twitter thread comparing the two players. Additionally, this was all going on as Dinwiddie prepared for the NBA playoffs.

Dinwiddie has since put the ball back in Kuzma’s court after once again responding to his former teammate. “Some people are blessed to be in situations. We don’t get mad at Rick Fox for winning a championship with Kobe and Shaq. Some people are blessed, but we can’t act like Rick Fox led them to a championship.” Dinwiddie said, referring to Kuzma’s role in the Lakers’ 2020 championship. Maybe it wasn’t the best choice of words from Dinwiddie, as Rick Fox is now in on the drama. And safe to say, he wasn’t happy with Dinwiddie dragging his name.

Rick Fox Takes Aim At Dinwiddie

Fox, the three-time Lakers champion, joined the fray after Dinwiddie compared Kuzma to him. “Hello @SDinwiddie_25 #NiceToMeetYou Thanks for the introduction @ClutchPointsApp~ this is a photo of the 3 Captains that @PhilJackson11chose to lead his @Lakers Teams to Back2Back2Back Championships ~Who is @RickFox? I AM #TheOther #TheEnforcer KEYS #DefenseWinsChampionships” read Fox’s tweet late Thursday night.

Dinwiddie’s comparison was poorly chosen. No one claims that Rick Fox was the force behind the Lakers’ three-peat. However, Fox was a vital defensive piece who helped turn the Lakers into the team that won three straight. As Fox himself noted, he was named as a team captain during their championship years. Fox’s impact doesn’t across in his stats because he played strong perimeter defense. That was where Fox locked things down, forcing opponents to make players and preventing drives into the paint. Furthermore, beyond his point being misplaced, Dinwiddie attacked a beloved former Laker and social media was quick to rise to Fox’s defense. It’s unclear where the beef goes from here. However, it’s safe to say that it’s now a three-way affair.

Spencer Dinwiddie Continues Shots At Kyle Kuzma

by

Spencer Dinwiddie went scorched earth on Kyle Kuzma earlier this week. The former Washington Wizards teammates have had a long beef that shows no signs of being settled. After Dinwiddie’s comments, Kuzma decided to respond on Wednesday. The Wizards star sent out a lengthy Twitter thread discussing the complications between the two. However, it doesn’t seem like a cease-fire is on the horizon. The Brooklyn star isn’t holding back on his recent comments involving Kuzma’s life on and off the court. On Thursday, Dinwiddie went into even more detail on how he sees Kuzma’s playing career.

“Some people are blessed to be in situations. We don’t get mad at Rick Fox for winning a championship with Kobe and Shaq. Some people are blessed, but we can’t act like Rick Fox led them to a championship.” The statement is in regard to Kuzma winning a ring with the Lakers back in 2020. Obviously, that team was led by LeBron James and Anthony Davis. However, Dinwiddie didn’t mind reminding the world. But Kuzma can still say he is an NBA champion. Something I’m sure that will be brought up in his response.

Spencer Dinwiddie Thinks Kuzma Should Learn His Place

If you had Dinwiddie and Kuzma’s beef being a major talking point heading into the playoffs, go play the lottery immediately. Kuzma’s Wizards did not qualify for the playoffs. Which happened to be one of Dinwiddie’s major talking points when discussing Kuzma’s talents. However, Dinwiddie will be preparing for the playoffs as his Nets take on the Sixers in round one. While there may seem like more important things to direct his energy on, Dinwiddie is enjoying sharing his thoughts on Kuzma.

There’s nothing better than drama that doesn’t involve yourself. You can get a nice warm bowl of popcorn and spend the evening scrolling through the drama. Something tells me we may hear from Kuzma before this night ends. So, which side are you on? Are you team Spencer Dinwiddie or team Kyle Kuzma? Pledge your allegiances in the comment section.

Kyle Kuzma Claps Back At Spencer Dinwiddie In Twitter Thread

by

Kyle Kuzma didn’t take long to answer Spencer Dinwiddie’s comments from Wednesday morning. Dinwiddie was a guest on FanDuel Tv and, during his appearance, had plenty to say about his former teammate. The Nets guard claims he doesn’t think that Kuzma is intensely focused on his playing career. But rather enjoys the spoils of his off-the-court life. Kuzma and Dinwiddie spent time in Washington together. But their beef has been no secret to the NBA Twitter world.

Kuzma was quick in his response to Dinwiddie’s appearances. Including a thread on Twitter to explain his relationship with Dinwiddie. Kuzma started his Twitter thread by saying, “Ok so since I’m so “famous”@FanDuelTV & @SDinwiddie_25 let me give you all some clout. I’m usually unbothered but things on the internet but I will not allow this delusional guy to continue to talk about my teammates and I.” From there, Kuzma went all in.

Kyle Kuzma’s Epic Response To Spencer Dinwiddie

Kuzma attacks Dinwiddie personally and professionally in his Twitter thread. Including giving the Brooklyn guard an unflattering nickname. Kuzma flamed Dinwiddie for his praise of the Nets making the playoffs. Dinwiddie spoke about how his team is a playoff team, while Kuzma and the Wizards will not be participating. Kuzma said that Dinwiddie should thank former Nets stars Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving for their contributions prior to being traded. As Kuzma mentioned, the Nets do have a losing record since dealing both Durant and Irving. But the Nets can still claim they belonged in the playoffs this season.

The beef between Kyle Kuzma and Spencer Dinwiddie looks to be far from over. Kuzma’s response to Dinwiddie is for sure going to stoke the flames of their beef. Dinwiddie’s comments have seemed to bring it all out of Kuzma. However, maybe Dinwiddie should begin putting his focus on the playoffs. But a little beef never really hurt anyone. So, who has won the latest round between Kuzma and Dinwiddie? Please tell us your thoughts on the beef and what side you stand on. For the latest NBA news, keep it right here at HNHH.

Spencer Dinwiddie Goes Scorched Earth On Kyle Kuzma

by

Spencer Dinwiddie is currently preparing for the NBA Playoffs with his Brooklyn Nets. However, that didn’t stop the Brooklyn star from having a moment to discuss a beef. Dinwiddie appeared on FanDuel TV and, during his segment, talked about his heat with Kyle Kuzma. Kuzma was a former teammate of Dinwiddie’s in Washington. But the term teammate wouldn’t describe their current relationship. Dinwiddie didn’t hide his true feelings toward his former teammate.

“You’re probably not even a third star really on a good team, because if you were the Lakers probably would have kept you.” That statement is a huge shot at Kuzma and his abilities. Dinwiddie went on further by saying it doesn’t make sense how the Wizards miss the playoffs this season. His reasoning was simple. A team with three max contract players shouldn’t miss the playoffs. Especially when a team like the Nets could fight their way in after trading two max stars.

Spencer Dinwiddie Doesn’t Hide His Feelings

Dinwiddie also seems to believe Kuzma doesn’t have the correct mindset on his career. The Nets guard mentions that maybe the off-the-court lifestyle is more interesting to Kuzma than his time on the court. The shot about the Lakers not keeping Kuzma definitely feels like salt in the wounds. As the Lakers punched their playoff ticket on Tuesday night with a win over Minnesota. Kuzma has been seen in public news cycles more than on a sports page over his career. However, Kuzma did have Jazz fans irate with his recent comments on Lauri Markkanen. Markkanen will travel back to Finland to complete the country’s mandatory military duties.

The Spencer Dinwiddie-Kyle Kuzma drama has seemingly taken another twist. Kuzma has yet to reply to Dinwiddie’s comments. However, I’m sure the Wizards forward will have something to say about Dinwiddie’s statements. But for now, Dinwiddie will focus on his team’s playoff aspirations. What are your thoughts on Dinwiddie’s comments directed at Kuzma? Should the two let this beef go and move on? Give us your thoughts on the situation in the comment section.

Brooklyn Nets Go All Out For NYC Birthday Bash

by

The 2022-23 NBA season has been a chaotic one for the Brooklyn Nets. The team reached the playoffs and has a plethora of future draft capital. However, they were also plagued by scandal while also having to trade away both Kyrie Irving and Kevin Durant. While the future may be bright for the Nets, it has been a rollercoaster season for fans.

One persistent bright spot for the team has been veteran point guard Spencer Dinwiddie. Dinwiddie, who spent five seasons with the Nets between 2016 and 2021, returned to the team as part of the package from the Mavs for Kyrie. Since moving back to Brooklyn, Dinwiddie is nearly averaging a double-double, with 16.5 points per game and 9.1 assists per game. He is currently third in points per game on the team’s current roster. Dinwiddie has been a core piece of the Nets’ late-season run to the playoffs. But Dinwiddie shone for a different reason over the weekend, as it was his 30th birthday that saw the Nets go all out in Manhattan.

Nets Out Till 3 AM For Dinwiddie’s 30TH

According to a report from Page Six, the Nets booked out Sei Less for a 75-person party to celebrate Dinwiddie’s birthday. Coming off a 101-84 win over the Magic on Friday evening, the team reportedly stayed out until 3am Saturday morning. However, Dinwiddie’s 30th was not the only thing worth celebrating, as the win had also guaranteed the Nets their playoff spot. The celebration was not cheap, with the minimum price for a full restaurant reservation at the Asian fusion spot being $60,000. A regular haunt of many celebrities, Sei Less also hosted a birthday party for Julia Fox last year during her brief fling with Kanye.

Unfortunately for the Nets, the celebration did not extend across the rest of the weekend. The team dropped their regular-season finale to the Sixers 134-105 on Sunday afternoon. The Nets will face off against the Sixers again in the first round of the playoffs next weekend. But for a few hours on Saturday morning, the team was able to blow off steam and celebrate the milestone birthday of a beloved teammate.
