Glen ‘Big Baby’ Davis has been forced to apologize after an old video of the former NBA star joking about ‘raping’ a woman resurfaced on social media.

Davis, who recently shocked fans by claiming he used to make porn films, can be heard saying in the clip: ‘Yo, I’m on an elevator, some girl who just got out, she smelled so f****ng good. Oh my, I can smell this b***h in the hallway.

‘Damn girl in the elevator with that motherf****ng perfume on… that s**t almost made me rape you girl.’

It is unclear when Davis recorded the video, which has gone viral this week after resurfacing online.

And amid the backlash over his offensive sexual-assault joke, the ex-Boston Celtics and Orlando Magic center took to Instagram to issue an apology.

‘First of all, I want to say I’m sorry to all r*** victims,’ he said. ‘Anybody that felt any type of way about what I said.

‘I am a stand-up comedian, I do comedy and sometimes I might say stuff a little bit wrong. And I did.

‘So I hope you guys don’t get offended about it.’

Davis went on to add that he removed the video from his own social-media account ‘a long time ago’.

‘Y’all kept that and just decided to use it today. That’s ridiculous,’ he added.

‘I didn’t mean no harm, I’m so sorry if I offended anybody. Y’all carry on with your day man, I’m trying to live my life man. Leave me alone please.’

Davis won the NBA title with the Celtics in 2008 but last played professional basketball with NBL Canada team St John’s Edge in 2019.

It’s thought the 38-year-old, who led Louisiana State to the 2006 NCAA championship game, earned around $32million during his career, which also saw him play for the Los Angeles Clippers.
