Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson made headlines with his comedic appearance at Netflix’s 'The Roast of Kevin Hart,' where he targeted Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green. The Rock joked about Green's name, calling it 'the laziest f---ing Black name' and suggesting that Green's team, the Warriors, had been eliminated from the playoffs, quipping, 'maybe it’s time to retire' [1]. Green was present on stage alongside Pete Davidson, Jeff Ross, and others during the roast [1].
Despite the jokes about retirement, Draymond Green has publicly stated that he is not retiring from the NBA and hopes to continue his career with the Warriors. Last month, Green expressed his desire to remain with the team, emphasizing his contributions both on and off the court: 'I hope I've done enough to still be here. Because at the end of the day, if I ain't done enough, I don't want to be here... that's leadership, that's helping bring the young guys along, that's helping to move the organization forward. So, hopefully I've done enough to still be here. But if not, we'll see what it looks like. It's been a hell of a run' [1].
Green, a four-time NBA champion and four-time All-Star, was drafted by the Warriors in the second round of the 2012 NBA Draft. In the 2025-26 season, he averaged 8.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists over 68 games [1]. The article also notes that Green was ejected during the final moments of an NBA play-in tournament game against the Phoenix Suns on April 17, 2026, where the Warriors lost 111-96 [1].
