Draymond Green, the Golden State Warriors power forward, has a new offer on the table to star in a porn film.
This sex tape offer is an outgrowth, as it were, of all the publicity surrounding Green accidentally and briefly posting an image of his penis to Snapchat. At first, the NBA star claimed his account was hacked, but he subsequently admitted that the photo was meant to be sent privately.
“I kinda hit the wrong button and it sucks. It was meant to be private. We’re all one click away from placing something in the wrong place, and I suffered from that this morning,” an apologetic Draymond Green detailed to the Los Angeles Times.
Green is currently playing for Team USA in Rio de Janeiro at the Summer Olympics.
“The guy behind the Kim Kardashian sex tape says he wants a piece of Draymond Green — saying he was so impressed with Dray’s monster penis, he’s offered the guy a 6-figure porn deal!,” TMZ reported today about Draymond Green’s multimedia career opportunity as a porn star.
Referencing the Snapchat photo, Steven Hirsch of Vivid Entertainment presented Green with the porn offer in a letter dated yesterday, which includes creative control.
“Here’s the deal: We will give you $100k to star in a porn called ‘Drayzilla .’ You call all the shots. You pick your co-stars and set up the scene however you want. We’ll be there to make sure it comes off perfectly. After your runner-up performance last year I’m sure you’ll be ready to really drive it home…BTW, we want to assure you that you will be in good hands…”

Draymond Green has had an interesting summer otherwise. The NBA star made waves after he slapped a Michigan State football player while he was visiting Lansing, Michigan, on July 10. Draymond was arrested for assault and eventually got off after just paying a fine, the Inquisitr previously detailed .
The whole Drayzilla pitch may be just a way for the porn exec to generate publicity. Moreover, a six-figure sex tape stipend may not be enough to convince Draymond Green, a 2016 NBA All-Star, to get out of bed in the morning, so to speak.
“Although the offer from Vivid may seem lucrative, it’s merely a drop in the bucket compared to Green’s contract with the Warriors. He’s scheduled to make a shade over $15.3 million in base salary next season…Furthermore, he’d probably be best off trying to avoid the spotlight for a while once Team USA’s Olympic journey ends,” The Bleacher Report explained .
About a year ago, Draymond Green signed a five-year, $82 million contract with the Golden State Warriors, so he probably has minimal need for an additional income stream.

Green was selected with the 35th overall pick in the 2012 NBA draft by the Golden State Warriors out of Michigan State University. As a key member of the Warriors, he helped Stephen Curry and Co. win the 2015 NBA Championship and arguably helped the team lose the title in 2016.
The Warriors were up 3-1 over the Cleveland Cavaliers, but Green’s Game 5 suspension turned the whole series around, which the Cavs went on to win in seven. The suspension was the result of his striking the crotch of Steven Adams and LeBron James, respectively, in prior games, and in so doing, exceeding the flagrant foul limit.

Most would agree that, in general, Draymond Green would be a lot better off if he stayed away from that area of the anatomy, something porn producer Vivid Entertainment should probably take into account when considering him for a starring role in Drayzilla .
“It may seem like a cheap publicity stunt, but Hirsch is the go-to guy for celeb porn — he’s worked with Kim K, Chyna, Kendra Wilkinson, Pam Anderson and more,” TMZ added about the Draymond Green porn video offer.
