Mavs May Need Another Aggressive Trade Deadline
The Dallas Mavericks are no strangers to making big moves at the trade deadline.
Last year, they made a plethora of moves, acquiring Daniel Gafford and P.J. Washington in two separate deals. Those moves helped the Mavs go all the way to the NBA Finals. The year before, they acquired Kyrie Irving from the Brooklyn Nets, which didn’t work out at first, but has certainly made an impact two years later.
Now, the Mavs are sitting in the middle of the pack in the Western Conference once again, but do they need to match that intensity they have had in the past to this upcoming deadline?

A big reason behind Dallas’ descent in the standings has been due to Luka Doncic’s injury. The Mavs have certainly missed him, but they will get him back soon. That may be the “trade” they need the most.
Dereck Lively II’s injury is also troublesome. He will be without for at least a month, but the recovery process could last until the end of the regular season.
There’s a lot of uncertainty surrounding the Mavs at the moment, and a trade or two would only fan the flames.
However, sometimes it’s best to swing and miss than to let strike three go by. That’s the decision general manager Nico Harrison has to make.

DALLAS – Dallas police need a name for a dangerous robber who pulled a gun on a 7-Eleven clerk and walked out with the cash register drawer.
He was caught on camera. But it’s been six months, and he’s still at large.
7-Eleven Robberies
What we know:
The robbery in question happened on Jan. 13 around 10:30 p.m. at the store at 302 North Marsalis Avenue.
A Black male who is about 5 feet 8 inches tall and about 170 to 180 pounds walked in and waited until no other customers were inside.
“After it’s empty, he displays a handgun and points it at the cashier,” said Det. Eduardo Lopez Villa. “I don’t know what he said. He just demanded the cash from the cash register.”
Det. Villa said the suspect took the whole cash register drawer before fleeing eastbound on foot on 8th Street.
What you can do:
The detective believes anyone who knows the suspect will be able to recognize him.
“Yes, most definitely based on the video and the screenshot. If you know him, you’ll recognize him,” he said.
Tipsters can call or text Det. Villa at 469-755-8445.
“I need his information so I can talk to him about this incident,” he said.
