Door kicking New Orleans Pelicans guard 'Tango Uniform' in Dallas
2016-05-29
[Huffpoo] New Orleans Pelicans guard Bryce Dejean-Jones died of a gunshot wound on Saturday, and the NBA player's agent said it was because he mistakenly entered into the wrong apartment.

The 23-year-old was shot early Saturday at an apartment in Dallas, police said. The resident told officers he was asleep when an intruder kicked open the front door and entered the home. The trespasser allegedly did not respond to calls from the resident, who then retrieved a handgun. He fired his weapon when the suspect kicked in the bedroom door, according to a police report. The intruder was wounded and left the apartment.

Police found the suspect collapsed in the breezeway after responding around 3:20 a.m. and transported him to a hospital, where he died of his injuries, police said. He was identified as Dejean-Jones.

#2  How long before we hear his family talking about what a "good kid" he was and how "deyze been robbed" by the eeeevil gun owner? How long before we hear his coach talking about what a bright future he had and "everybody on the team loved him?" How long before we get the newspaper article about the 10 year old boy who idolized him and had a bassetbaw shirt with his number on it?
