Jaylen Brown made good on his word about offering a “big reward” for the return of a ring he lost during the Boston Celtics championship parade. “Got it back,” Brown posted to X, formerly known as Twitter, on Tuesday. “Thank you to Luke and Adi I’ll see you courtside at the (ring emoji) ceremony.”

Reviewed: ‘Fancy Dance’ and ‘Sound of Hope: The Story of Possum Trot’ in theaters and streaming. Can Lily Gladstone do no wrong? Her recent triumvirate of work, “The Unknown Country” (2022), “Killers of the Flower Moon” (2023, for which she was Oscar nominated), and this film have been unerring. “Fancy Dance” is something of the flip side of Taylor Sheridan’s riveting “Wind River” (2017) in putting a female perspective on missing and murdered indigenous people. There are no white saviors here, but plenty of bad actors who use their light skin tone and societal position to bully and coerce, and worse. Gladstone plays Jax, a member of the Seneca-Cayuga Nation in Oklahoma. Her mother’s gone, her sister’s been missing for two weeks and in the interim she’s taking charge of her 13-year-old niece Roki (Isabel Deroy-Olson), hoping that mom resurfaces and takes her to an upcoming powwow in Tulsa where they are the defending mother-daughter champs. Things shift quickly as Child Protective Services swoops in and give custody of Roki to Jax’s white father, Frank (a dutiful Shea Whigham) and his second wife (Audrey Wasilewski). Turns out Jax has a record – dealing and petty larceny, done mostly to put food on the table. Frank’s not an unsympathetic guy, but it’s been some time since he’s been on the “rez,” and promptly kiboshes the prospect of the powwow, which leads to Jax “kidnapping” Roki. Not the wisest of ideas. An Amber Alert goes out, which underscores the fact that a child gone missing has the FBI jumping right in, but one native woman’s been missing two weeks and they won’t even crack a file. Gladstone’s every bit as on point here as she was in “Flower Moon,” and audiences will sit up and take notice of Deroy-Olson. Her nuanced performance as precocious teen missing her mom and coming of age faster than she wants to is a sheer revelation. The chemistry between Roki and Jax is deep and soulful, steeped in blood, social situation and a way of life. Another great add to the cast is Ryan Begay as JJ, Jax’s brother and lone reservation law enforcement, who tries to hold the FBI at a stick’s distance to give Jax a chance. Beyond that, one has to admire Wasilewski for taking on the thankless role of clueless white entitlement as a step-nana trying to assuage disappointment over a missed powwow with a pair of ballerina shoes and the promise of lessons. “Fancy Dance” marks the feature debut of Erica Tremblay, a member of the Seneca-Cayuga Nation and a creator of the series “Reservation Dogs.” Look for more from her and Deroy-Olson, because it will come.

Throughout this past season, former Boston Bruins forward Reilly Smith was one of the most-talked-about names in the rumor mill.

The Penguins have traded Smith to the New York Rangers in exchange for a 2027 second-round pick and a 2025 fifth-round pick. The Penguins will also retain 25% of Smith's salary, so he will have a $3.75 million cap hit for the Rangers. The Rangers were looking for another middle-six winger, and they now have gotten just that in Smith. He has the potential to be...

I’m excited to let you know about two important programs that help our older residents save more money: The first is the Medicare Savings Program (MSP)—which now offers more savings to more residents. Thanks to changes that went into effect earlier this year, assets are no longer counted against your eligibility for this program, eliminating a major barrier for access. And, on top of that, the amount of money you could save on Medicare-related costs like premiums, copays, and prescriptions has increased as well—from $2,500 a year to $3,000.
