Dallas police said officers shot and killed a suspect who pulled a gun out on them after they responded to an attempted break-in at an apartment complex on Saturday night.

In a short briefing, Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia confirmed that authorities received a call around 8:20 p.m. about a person with a gun trying to break into an apartment in the 3100 block of Norwalk Avenue.

Upon arriving at the scene, Garcia stated that officers encountered the suspect and issued verbal commands. The suspect then allegedly drew a gun, prompting officers to fire their weapons.

The suspect was pronounced dead at the scene, and no other injuries were reported in connection with the shooting. Chief Garcia said a press conference with more details related to Saturday night’s incident would be held next week.

The police department said the Dallas County District Attorney’s Office and Office of Community Police Oversight were notified and responded to the scene of the shooting.

The incident is still under investigation.

After a few months of a rumored return, the Dallas Mavericks have agreed to terms to bring back veteran forward Markieff Morris. They’ll have to open up a roster spot to make the move official, which likely means A.J. Lawson’s unguaranteed contract will be waived.

Morris was traded to the Mavericks as part of the Kyrie Irving trade in 2023 and has been a key veteran presence in the locker room. He appeared in just 26 games for the Mavs last season, averaging 2.5 PPG. He did get a chance to check into the NBA Finals for the second time, hitting a three-pointer in Game 4 against the Boston Celtics.

The Dallas Mavericks valued the leadership Morris brought to the locker room and while some fans wanted him on the bench as an assistant coach, Morris preferred to keep playing and is now back in Dallas.

Morris has played on eight different teams since being selected in the lottery of the 2011 NBA Draft. He most notably won a championship with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020, averaging 5.9 PPG in that playoff run. While he won’t get his wish of playing with his twin brother Marcus, he should be happy to return to Dallas after mentioning it all offseason.

There aren’t many people around football who believe Clemson will turn things around. The past 12 months would suggest they won’t, but history says they will.

Let’s not get too over the top here. Clemson is still a very talented football team, and losing to the consensus No. 1 team in America didn’t change that.

However, they need to start playing better. There’s no debating that. They’ll have an opportunity to do so on Saturday against an App State team that could beat them if they come out flat.

Emmitt Smith, the former Dallas Cowboys all-time great, shared that message. He spoke with Derrian Carter of The Greenville News about how important it is for them to come together and go on an impressive stretch.

“The good thing about having an early loss (is) as you start to gain momentum, and your team comes together, you get some wins on your belt (and) you get on the run, you never know how the end of the season may end,” Smith said. “They started off with the best, the No. 1 team in the nation. … Now, it’s about not having a mental let down (Saturday) and allowing Appalachian State to come in and shock you.”

Smith will attend Saturday’s game at Clemson, giving him a first-hand look at the team.

His advice to Clemson wasn’t the only thing he touched on. Smith also spoke about the potential conference change, as the Tigers are in a legal battle with the ACC.

“The SEC is already full, so don’t come there,” Smith said. “You’re better off staying in the ACC than going into the SEC because ain’t gonna be many more national championships. … I think being in the ACC, that conference has the ability to offer something that the SEC doesn’t offer. I think the ACC, whether you got Duke, you got Stanford now, you got great quality schools in there, I think it offers something different.”

His point is fair. The ACC has high-level academic schools, and while the SEC has a few, it doesn’t compare to the ACC.

However, all of this is about money. Whether Clemson wants to admit that or not is fair, but that’s the reality of the situation. If they believe they’d make more money in a different conference, that’s where they’ll be headed.

Nonetheless, it’ll be awesome to have a legend in the building on Saturday night.
