Dwayne Johnson Roasts Draymond Green's Name and Suggests Retirement at Kevin Hart Netflix Event

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson took a comedic swing at Draymond Green during Netflix's "The Roast of Kevin Hart" on Sunday night.

The former WWE star made a dramatic entrance before hitting the stage and zeroing in on the Golden State Warriors forward's name. "Draymond, that’s your name right? That’s my boy," Johnson said. "I was thinking about this. Of all the cool a-- Black names you could have, that is the laziest f---ing Black name I ever heard because all you did was put a ‘D’ in front of Raymond. This f---er’s r----ded. And on top of all that, your r----ded name, your team got bounced from the playoffs."

"So, I’m just saying, because you’re my boy and I love you, maybe it’s time to retire," he added.

Johnson drew laughs with the routine, as Green rarely faces such public jabs. Green shared the stage with Pete Davidson, Jeff Ross and others.

Green has rejected retirement talk. He wants to keep playing for the Warriors if he has proven his value. "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," he told The Sporting News last month.

"I don't ever want [the Warriors] to just keep me around because of what I've done before. ... And by the way, that's not just playing, right? 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."

The Warriors picked Green in the second round of the 2012 NBA Draft from Michigan State. He owns four NBA titles and four All-Star nods.

In the 2024-25 season, Green put up 8.4 points, 5.5 rebounds and 5.5 assists across 68 games.
