(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kris Humphries made a dig today at Kanye West who is currently dating his estranged wife Kim Kardashian.

The basketball player just signed a two-year, $24 million deal with the Brooklyn Nets which is part-owned by rapper Jay-Z.

Kris took to twitter to mock lyrics of a song that Kanye released earlier this year bragging that he could have his best friend and Watch the Throne collaborator fire Kris whenever he wanted.

"I'm up at Brooklyn! Lucky I didn't have Jay drop me from the team lol," Kris wrote on the social networking site.

The athlete has received a huge pay rise according to ESPN as his last contract was a one-year, $8 million deal.

"Kris has been a very consistent player for us over the past two years," Nets general manager Billy King said. "He has developed into one of the top rebounding forwards in the league, and we are very pleased to welcome him back."

Meanwhile, Kim and Kanye just touched back down in Los Angeles after a trip to the East Coast and want to start a family as soon as her divorce from Kris is finalised, according to recent reports. (C) Cover Media
