As the video from TMZ showed, the fight occurred on the concourse area. TMZ detailed, “At one point, the man can be seen in the video putting his elbow near Darrell’s neck in what seems to be an effort to keep him from advancing. Darrell, the footage shows, then swiped at the man’s arm to get it off of him. That’s when the man in the red balled up his fist and swung on Clipper Darrell — connecting straight with the superfan’s jaw. Darrell crashed into a nearby trash receptacle … and appeared to lose consciousness.”
Reactions from in and around the NBA already started to pour in on Wednesday afternoon as the video of the punch went viral.
Matt Barnes tweeted, “Come on Crypto.com Arena y’all can’t have security knocking out Clipper Darrell that’s weak smh.”
