Alexis Morris and the Harlem Globetrotters: ‘No sweeter feeling than being back’ in Louisiana


Former standout LSU basketball player Alexis Morris is coming back to Baton Rouge to play some basketball with the Harlem Globetrotters at 5 p.m. Sunday in the Raising Canes River Center. 

And how does it feel for Morris to be back in Louisiana?

“Home sweet home. There’s no sweeter feeling than being back in the great state of Louisiana,” she said Friday night after a Globetrotter show in Hammond. “Literally — the crowd, the fans, the support. I’m overwhelmed.”

She’s not only excited about being back in Baton Rouge; she’s also excited about seeing her mother, Sharonne Morris, for the first time in eight months. Better yet, her mom is bringing home cooking.

Morris says the Sunday exhibition will be the first time her mom has seen her as a Globetrotter. 

“She’s bringing me stuffed bell peppers, pig feet, mac and cheese and chitterlings,” Morris said. “It’s been so long since I’ve had her food. There’s nothing like your mom’s cooking — nothing. I know everybody’s like, ‘How is that little bitty body going to eat all of this?’ Trust me, I’m going to make it work. My stomach is going to stretch from my mother’s cooking.”

The Globetrotter way

Morris joined the 98-year-old Harlem Globetrotters organization in February as its seventh female player.

She appreciates the organization’s mission to break barriers and its focus on acts of goodwill.

Plus, she is pleased with the emphasis the Globetrotters are placing on including women. 

“What does that say? That speaks to the inclusion here with the Harlem Globetrotters. They’re becoming more diverse,” Morris said. “When most people were growing up, there were no female Harlem Globetrotters.”

For people of a certain generation, the Harlem Globetrotters represent extreme showmanship and fun.

Morris says the organization’s spirit hasn’t changed. It is still dedicated to putting on a great show and to making a difference in the world. Morris likes the focus on making the world a better place.

“It’s bigger than me, it’s bigger than the Harlem Globetrotters. It’s about changing lives every day and impacting the world in a positive way,” she said. “There’s so much wrong going on in the world today that we can focus on.”

Instead, the Globetrotters emphasize the goal of focusing on the positive.

That “glass half full” perspective works well for where Morris is in her life and development. The 24-year-old athlete who loved to lead the Tiger Band after a win in the PMAC is still up for the fun basketball has to offer. 

Just ask her what her favorite part of the Globetrotters show is.

“My part!” she said with a laugh. “For real though, I think my favorite part of the show is the whole show within itself. We have great energy. We have veterans who are great at what they do. Some of these people here amaze me. I’m like, ‘Wow, I aspire to be like you all one day.’”

‘Show shape’

Even though she’s not playing 40 minutes of NCAA basketball, being a Globetrotter still requires Morris to be in shape. But she says it’s a different kind of shape: “Show shape.”

“We come out here every night to put on an amazing show for the fans, the families, and our goal is to ultimately change people’s perspectives and create millions of smiles,” she said. 

Louisiana fans still tug at Morris’ heart. Being back in the Bayou State has given her a chance to reflect on all that she and the LSU team accomplished last year in winning the national championship.

‘Nothing but grateful’

The past year has been a whirlwind that has offered plenty of learning opportunities and growth.

“I can’t be nothing but grateful. I have nothing but I have a great sense of gratitude for the state of Louisiana — not just Baton Rouge, but the whole state of Louisiana,” she said. “I’m happy that we were able to make history here and that we are able to be a part of the history books in Louisiana.”

In April 2023, Morris was drafted into the WBNA in the second round shortly after leading the Tigers to a national championship.

She was cut from the Connecticut Sun about a month later and then played for a while in France before joining the Globetrotters. 

“I’ve grown. I’m not the same person I was last year,” she said, referring to the frenzy from winning the national championship as an LSU Tiger. 

That said, there are ways she says she hasn’t changed.

“My discipline and my habits don’t change. I get to the gym early, still work on my game. I still get shots up. It’s not the same as playing competitively because of the show,” she said. “But, it’s still competitive in a way. It’s all a mindset too. So for me, everything’s, everything’s competitive.”

Morris says she continues to work on being coachable and learning the Harlem Globetrotter way.

Looking back at her time at LSU, the run up to the Final Four and the team’s eventual win, Morris says she realizes the importance of living in the moment.

“Enjoy the moment, because moments don’t last forever. You can always relive the memories, but you can’t relive the moment,” she said. “In that moment (winning the national championship), I enjoyed it, but I wasn’t focusing on the accomplishment or the impact we had just made.”







WNBA Draft Basketball

WNBA dreams

She admits that she still wants to play in the WNBA but realizes she won’t do it within the coming year.

“It might not even be next year,” she said. “And this is why I say, ‘God’s time and not mine.’ I’m still doing what I love to do — and that’s ultimately, that’s how I stay grounded in my purpose, in my dreams.”

Man killed, officer injured in shooting in alleyway near Sand Bar in downtown Shreveport


SHREVEPORT, La. (KSLA) – A reportedly armed man and a police officer have been shot as part of an incident in downtown Shreveport early Sunday morning (July 5).

According to the Shreveport Police Department, officers first responded to a call about a fight around 4:15 a.m. in the alleyway behind the Sand Bar on N Spring Street.

As officers tried to break up the fight, shots were exchanged between a man who was reportedly involved in the fight and officers.

SPD says the man involved pulled out a gun and shot an officer. Then, they say the officer returned fire and shot the man multiple times.

Louisiana Purchase & Gardens Zoo holds “Red, White and Blue Day”


MONROE, La. (KNOE) – Families spent part of Independence Day weekend at Louisiana Purchase Gardens and Zoo for the first-ever “Red, White and Blue Day,” a new event the zoo hopes will become an annual tradition.

The celebration featured children’s activities, food vendors and patriotic decorations throughout the grounds.

Organizers also added a pair of crowd-pleasers: a pizza-eating contest and a watermelon-eating contest, drawing spectators who gathered to watch contestants race the clock.

Zoo Director Phillip Crawley said the event was designed as a family day focused on bringing the community together.

“We want a family day, you know, we want people to come together. We want the, all of America needs to come together,” Crawley said. “Everybody’s been so at each other lately that hey, let’s all just get back together… let’s come out here to the zoo let’s have a good time… and see that everybody’s happy.”

Crawley said the goal is to give families another reason to visit while creating a positive, shared experience in a relaxed setting.

Zoo officials said “Red, White and Blue Day” was the first of its kind at Louisiana Purchase Gardens and Zoo, and they hope to make it a yearly event moving forward.

Louisiana grand jury’s role in legal proceedings explained

Louisiana grand jury’s role in legal proceedings explained


(KTAL/KMSS) – The ongoing saga of Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill has many commentators on social media questioning what the grand jury process entails.

A grand jury is unlike a trial jury. A trial jury hears a case and decides a defendant’s guilt or innocence. The purpose of the grand jury is to determine if there is sufficient evidence against a defendant to bring them to trial.

The evidence viewed by a grand jury only represents what the state government considers just cause to bring charges in a case. They do not render verdicts; instead, they indict, which is a formal accusation or a decision that a person should be tried for their alleged crimes in a court of law.

In Louisiana, the grand jury is empanelled for a six-month service term. Occasionally, a special grand jury may be empanelled for eighteen months. Grand jurors are selected by lot from a pool of at least 300 prospective jurors. The number of grand jurors is specified by the court.

Once a grand jury is selected, the process becomes cloaked in privacy as names are sealed in envelopes and locked in sealed boxes. The clerk of court in the parish prepares subpoenas ordering pool members to appear on the date set forth by the court for grand jury selection.
