The mother of a woman killed near the University of Alabama in January has filed a wrongful death lawsuit in federal court against Charlotte Hornets rookie Brandon Miller and two other men.

Decarla Raietta Heard filed the suit Friday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama Western Division against Miller, former Crimson Tide player Darius Miles and another man, Michael Davis. Heard's daughter, 23-year-old Jamea Jonae Harris, was shot and killed early in the morning on Jan. 15.

Both Miles and Davis are charged with capital murder while Miller was described as a cooperating witness. The former Alabama All-American, who was selected No. 2 in June's NBA draft, was not charged with a crime. The suit filed by Birmingham attorneys Kirby D. Farris and Malia D. Tartt contended that the men"knew or should have known that bringing a dangerous weapon to a dispute and discharging said weapon would likely result in harm to those around them."

Attorney Jim Standridge said in a February statement that the gun was concealed under clothes in the back seat and that Miller never touched it"and never knew that illegal activity involving the gun would occur."NBA Champions by Year: Complete list of NBA Finals winners2023 NBA preseason schedule: Dates, times, channels, how to watch, resultsThe Lakers, Clippers and a burner: Behind that fake Austin Reaves-Taylor Swift rumorFOX SPORTS™, SPEED™, SPEED.
