Former NBA player Kenyon Martin went on an Instagram rant about Brooklyn Nets point guard Jeremy Lin and his choice of hair.

Yes, Martin is not feeling Lin’s new LOCKS and even made a few videos about it…

Lin later clapped back with a response that kind of deems him the winner in this “small beef.”

Here’s Lin’s response:

“Hey man, it’s all good. You definitely don’t have to like my hair and (are) definitely entitled to your opinion,” Lin wrote. “Actually I (am) legit grateful (for) you sharin it (to be honest). At the end of the day, I appreciate that I have dreads and you have Chinese tattoos (because) I think its a sign of respect. And I think as minorities, the more that we appreciate each other’s cultures, the more we influence mainstream society. Thanks for everything you did for the Nets and hoops … had your poster up on my wall growin up.”

Take a look at the back and forth interactions below:
