Draymond Green has opinions on everything: his teammates, his opponents and even pop culture. If he has to give an honest take on a fellow hooper's viral rap song, he’ll do it 100%.

That's exactly what Green, a podcaster when he’s not a do-it-all defender, did on Wednesday's episode of "The Draymond Green Show." When co-host Baron Davis brought up LiAngelo Ball’s track “Tweaker,” he played the song so Green could listen to it for the first time.

"Hey, that's knocking, I ain't even gon' lie," a clearly impressed Green said. "Alright, Gelo!"

Green went on to ask if the song was viral because it was good or if people simply wanted to ridicule Ball’s attempts at making hip-hop music. Davis, who also played in the NBA before becoming a TV and social media personality, offered analysis from the perspective of a hip-hop fan.

"The reason why I like it is, he brought back a 2000s vibe," said Davis. "He didn't come out trying to do drill rap, trying to rap like Lil Baby."

“Tweaker” has reached the No. 8 spot on Spotify’s U.S. Top 50 Playlist. Clips of the song being played and appreciated by sports figures such as Shaquille O’Neal, Angel Reese and Dawn Staley have contributed to its growing popularity.

Now, the clip of Draymond Green dancing to "Tweaker" can be added to that list.
