New York Rangers president and general manager Chris Drury is once again open for business.
During the beginning of the 2024-25 season, Drury was not happy with the way the Rangers were playing, so he sent out a league-wide memo indicating his desire to shake up the roster and make trades.
Ultimately, the Rangers missed the playoffs and now major change could very well be on the horizon.
“The Rangers are considering an awful lot of things,” Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman said. “Like after the season they had last year, there are very few things that are off the table. Chris Drury has got a lot out there and he basically wants to know if you want to talk to them about something, just reach out because he’s gotta know everything that’s on the table for him.”
Over the course of the 2024-25 campaign, Drury traded away multiple players including Jacob Trouba, Kaapo Kakko, Filip Chytil, Ryan Lindgren, and Jimmy Vesey.
Drury already made a big move to start the offseason by firing Peter Laviolette and hiring Mike Sullivan to be the Rangers’ head coach.
There are a ton of questions when it comes to how the Rangers’ roster is currently constructed and it wouldn’t be a surprise at all if Drury continued his pursuit of completely re-shaping the team’s core.

The Oklahoma City Thunder head into their first NBA Finals since 2012 this week.

With the Midsummer Classic set to take place in Atlanta at Truist Park on July 15th, today is the day that All-Star Game ballots have dropped—and it’s up to the public to make their choices. While some players might be locks to start the game (looking at you, Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani), there are a few sports that could see some interesting position battles.
Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman go down the ballots for the American and National League squads, making their picks for who they think should be voted in as starters. They wonder if Juan Soto can beat out an impressive trio of NL outfielders, why Dave Roberts could be selective with his Los Angeles Dodgers players and whether Rafael Devers even bothers to bring a glove with him to Atlanta.
Later on this episode of the Baseball Bar-B-Cast, the guys examine the weird season that the Atlanta Braves are having—and why it’s oddly similar to the Boston Red Sox—before going around the league to discuss all the injury news surrounding the Houston Astros and New York Mets, among other teams. They close the show with the latest news surrounding the Men’s and Women’s College World Series.

When I think of Nothing (the phone company), I think of value. The Nothing Phone 3a, for example, is $379, but it doesn’t feel like it: It looks cool, it performs well, and checks many of the boxes you’d expect from a phone that costs twice as much, if not more.
These phones aren’t perfect, of course, and are missing some features that the best iPhones, Pixels, and Galaxies might have. But that’s kind of the point: The company cuts features that most users don’t want or need at this price point, while offering features that many “budget” phones often omit. In a world of expensive flagships, it’s cool to see a company continue to prioritize a premium smartphone experience while keeping the price in check.
Even the Phone 2, which was not considered a “budget” phone, launched at $599—more expensive than the 3a for sure, but not quite premium iPhone pricing. That’s why I find the Nothing Phone 3 to be a bit confusing. The company officially announced on Wednesday that its newest phone will arrive in July of 2025:
Nothing hasn’t revealed too many details about the new phone yet, other than what CEO Carl Pei shared at Google I/O. Back in May, Pei said that Nothing Phone 3 would be the company’s “first true flagship smartphone,” and will include “premium materials, major performance upgrades, and software that really levels things up.”
That all sounds good. I mean, who doesn’t want those three elements in their smartphone of choice? Unfortunately, it appears that trifecta comes at a cost. Pei followed up that vague announcement with the Phone 3’s price tag: £800, or roughly $1,085 when converted to USD. Essentially, the Nothing Phone 3 will directly compete with the iPhone 16 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro, and Galaxy S25+.
Now, it’s possible the U.S. pricing could differ: As spotted by 9to5Google, leaker MysteryLupin posted on X that Phone 3 will cost $799, with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, while the 16GB RAM variant with 512GB of storage costs $899. That $200 could make a difference, and would make the Phone 3 cheaper than the iPhone 16, and in the same arena as the Galaxy S25 and Pixel 9. Leaks and rumors should always be taken with a grain of salt, but Nothing only disclosed the U.K. pricing, so we’re not necessarily locked into that £800 price.
We also don’t know enough to say whether that $800 to $1,000 MSRP would be worth it, and we likely won’t until reviewers get their hands on the Phone 3, but I have to admit some skepticism at this early stage. Maybe the Phone 3 will be the phone to beat this year, but to me, Nothing’s strength is in its simplicity: I like that the company makes a phone that looks, well, nothing like the competition, while also finding a way to keep an exceptional price. Sure, extra features and performance are always welcome, but for potentially an additional $700, I’m not sure they’re that welcome.
Reddit is giving users more control to choose which activity other users can see on their public profiles. A new “curate my profile” feature allows users to selectively show or hide posting and commenting activity, as well as follower counts and NSFW content and communities.
What’s changed with Reddit profile settings
With new “Content and activity” settings, Reddit users can choose to hide all public posts and comments or selectively display activity from some subreddits on their profiles while keeping others hidden. Users can also hide follower counts as well as NSFW content and communities from their profiles.
Previously, all posts and comments were visible on a user’s public profile, which remains the default. While users are largely anonymous, anyone could see their activity, such as posting history and which communities they’d participated in. As Engadget notes, this allowed the broader community to hold users accountable for bad behavior, and some users are concerned that the ability to hide activity from a public profile will make said behavior more difficult to see.
On the flip side, TechCrunch points out that the option to limit public post visibility may encourage more participation. Users who wanted to engage in communities on sensitive topics may have created throwaway accounts to avoid having that activity appear on their profile—or chosen not to participate at all.
Note that hiding activity on your profile won’t hide your username on posts and comments in the community itself. You also cannot hide individual posts or comments from your profile—you can only show or hide all activity from an entire community. Moderators may still have access to your history even if you’ve changed your visibility settings.
How to change your Reddit profile visibility
According to Reddit’s announcement, the feature began rolling out on June 3. However, it may not be available to all users immediately—I don’t have it yet—so be sure to update your app to the latest version and keep an eye out for the new Curate your profile menu, which will appear just under View profile when you open your profile pane in the app.
When you select Curate your profile, you’ll see options to toggle NSFW content and follower count on and off. You can also tap Content and activity, which will give you a pop-up to show all, hide all, or customize what’s visible on your profile. If you choose Customize, you can select or deselect specific subs to show or hide activity from those communities.
Not even Jaylen Brown is safe from trade talks this offseason as the Boston Celtics look to shed significant salary.
Just about everyone from the 2024 championship core is on the table with the C’s aiming to avoid the restrictive penalties associated with being in the second apron of the luxury tax. They will have to move at least one rotational player, but another option is to wipe the slate clean with a full reboot.
“The team I’d watch the closest with Jaylen Brown is probably the Spurs,” Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated said Wednesday on NBC Sports Boston’s The Off C’season special. “Sure, I think (the Spurs would) love to make a run at Giannis, but do the Bucks ask for Stephon Castle? Like, is that on their wish list? And if it is, I can’t see San Antonio doing a deal like that.
“One of the concerns people in San Antonio told me about is, you go and deal for a guy like Giannis, all of a sudden you’ve created a championship window, but it is a window with a closing date. You’ve got De’Aaron Fox, who’s in his late 20s, Giannis in his early 30s, and the last thing they want is to have a roster after those guys kind of age out where when (Victor) Wembanyama is maybe looking around going, ‘All right, where are the young guys I’m going to play with after that?’
“It certainly is a problem for another day, but that’s on the mind of the San Antonio Spurs. That’s why they want to hold on to Stephon Castle, so he can be that second guy opposite Wembanyama for a long time, assuming they trade that No. 2 pick.”
As Mannix puts it, the Celtics would be a more attractive trade partner for the Spurs because they likely wouldn’t require a player like Castle in return. Instead, the deal would center around the No. 2 overall pick in this year’s draft — likely Rutgers standout guard Dylan Harper.
“I think if you’re Boston, you’re not going to ask for a Stephon Castle. You’re not going to get a Stephon Castle in a potential Jaylen Brown deal,” Mannix added. “You would get the No. 2 pick back in return. You would get the Devin Vassells, the Keldon Johnsons, future first-round capital. That’s something I’d watch if and when the Giannis Antetokounmpo stuff shakes itself out over the next few weeks.”
Yahoo Sports NBA insider Kevin O’Connor asked Mannix whether the Spurs would put the No. 2 pick on the table for Brown in a potential swap.
“Oh, absolutely. I don’t think Boston does that deal without the number two pick,” Mannix answered. “I think Jaylen — for San Antonio — is worth giving up a player that most people talk about as a potential franchise guy in Dylan Harper.
“People that I talked to really like (Harper), but I think Jaylen Brown is — at his age with his contract status, his playoff pedigree — I think that’s worth it. And all of a sudden, you’ve got Fox, you’ve got Brown, you’ve got Castle, and you’ve got Wemby backstopping that team. That’s a championship contender in the Western Conference next season.”
It will be a fascinating offseason for the Celtics and unquestionably the most challenging yet for president of basketball operations Brad Stevens. Even if Brown stays put, Stevens will have to make some agonizing decisions this summer with other key players — perhaps as soon as this month, with the 2024 NBA Draft set for June 25.
