Rapaport jumped out of his seat and rushed toward the man, Fox Sports director Ted Kennedy tweeted. A couple of BIG3 basketball players who were also on the flight ran up and helped Rapaport restrain the passenger.
American Airlines confirmed that flight crew immediately responded to the incident and restrained the passenger. He was taken back to his seat where he remained without incident for the rest of the flight.
Big3 players Glen Davis and Baron Davis joined Rapaport to subdue the man, who allegedly thought the emergency exit was a bathroom. Rapaport took to social media after the incident and gave an update on what took place.
