Draymond Green doesn't care much for Nicki Minaj's infatuation with LeBron James.

While discussing Minaj's feud with fellow rapper Remy Ma on the latest episode of his podcast, the Golden State Warriors forward called her out for name-dropping James - most recently on "No Frauds." The track, which takes aim at Ma, includes the line, "They say numbers don't matter but when they discussin' the kings, they turn around and say LeBron ain't got six rings."

"Is Nicki Minaj gon' mention 'Bron in every song?" Green wondered aloud, according to Bansky Gonzalez from Uproxx. "Like, every song she has released since June 2016, there's something about LeBron in it. I mean dang, like yeah, LeBron is great but Jesus Christ. At some point it just becomes too repetitive. Jesus Christ, you can't mention 'Bron in every song you do."

Green was exaggerating, but Minaj has referenced James in several of her rhymes.

On DJ Mustard's "Don't Hurt Me," she raps: "Even if you was Curry, bitch, there's still a LeBron / But let's face it, I'm Curry, with rings like LeBron / Added my rings up, that's Mike Jordan." She also mentions James on DJ Khaled's "Do You Mind" and her 2010 track "Blazin."
