Brian Scalabrine claims Jaylen Brown ‘demanded’ trade from Boston amid Jayson Tatum rift

The sudden breakup of longtime Boston Celtics co-stars Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum remains unexplained, and the two former champions’ recent comments have only intensified questions about what exactly happened between them. Brown opened the offseason by saying last year was the best of his career, which drew confusion since Tatum missed most of the season with injury and the Celtics lost in the first round of the playoffs. The veteran forward was drawn into trade rumors with Giannis Antetokounmpo shortly after, and ultimately dealt to Philadelphia. The move left the Celtics unequivocally Tatum’s team. In a social media video last week, Tatum claimed he was “caught off guard” by the Brown trade. Brown responded by claiming Tatum was lying, then added that while he had no beef toward Tatum, there was “a little lamb chops and some gravy” between them. The feud is shaping up to be the…

Phantom Blade Zero review: Best action game of the year

China’s video game industry has really ramped up over the past few years, with developers releasing everything from ambitious free-to-play titles like Where Winds Meet to unique Soulslike experiences found in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers. Then there’s Black Myth: Wukong, which famously won Best Action Game at the 2024 Game Awards. Beating Black Myth: Wukong was never going to be easy, but Phantom Blade Zero’s breathtakingly cool combat, stunning environments, and adrenaline-fueled boss fights surpass its Monkey King rival. It’s a martial arts game that combines Soulslike boss fights with stylish combat choreography inspired by movie greats like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. While it wears its influences proudly on its sleeve, Phantom Blade Zero forges its own identity to stand out from the crowd. You play as Soul, a talented member of The Order, a shadowy group renowned throughout the…

Federal regulators launch deeper review of Amtrak’s $900M Bridgeport project

The Federal Railroad Administration announced that they will be investigating Amtrak's proposed $900 million redevelopment play in Bridgeport that could send the White Sox packing. The FRA committed to a formal environmental assessment of the rail operator's plans and are set to complete the study by the end of the year, according to Crain's. The controversy has come from what appears to be a trade for the Bridgeport neighborhood: the White Sox for a maintenance facility. For Bridgeport residents, the federal exemption and Ishbia's option to purchase the team in the near future made it feel inevitable. Amtrak and Ishbia's venture set up for The Railyards, Canal Edge, put out a joint statement on the updated investigation, saying that they think a larger environmental appraisal of the site is an appropriate next step. The pair also state they are welcoming of the opportunity for…
