“Draymond, isn’t that your name? That’s my son,” The Rock began. “I was thinking about it. Of all the cool black names you could have, this is the laziest black name I’ve ever heard because all you did was put a ‘D’ in front of Raymond. That’s f————————————— one———– I’ve been thinking about this.”
“So I’m just saying, because you’re my son and I love you, maybe it’s time to retire.”
Rocky chuckled a little since Green wasn’t one to blush very often. While Green was on stage with Pete Davidson, Jeff Ross and others, the former champion followed him.

Green has made it clear that he is not retiring from the NBA and hopes to continue his career with the Warriors.
“I hope I’ve done enough to still be here. Because at the end of the day, if I haven’t done enough, I don’t want to be here,” he said last month, via The Sporting News.
“I don’t want it at all [the Warriors] To keep me around because of what I’ve done before. … By the way, this isn’t just playing, right? This is leadership, it helps bring young people together, it helps the organization move forward. So hopefully I’ve done enough to still be here. But if not, we’ll see what it looks like. “It was a very tough run.”
