Celtics Might Have Uncovered a Gem This Offseason

The Boston Celtics started this season in search of answers. Roles were fluid. Lineups changed most nights. Without Jayson Tatum, the team leaned on structure and collective effort to stay steady. In the middle of that uncertainty, one of the quieter stories on the roster has begun to take shape. Josh Minott has given the Celtics something they didn’t expect this soon: reliability built on energy, maturity and a calm understanding of what each game needs. He hasn’t forced his way into the spotlight. He’s simply earned it. Minott: From Opportunity to Adversity and Back Again Minott’s early-season rise came fast. He worked his way into the starting lineup in a road game versus the Pelicans and stayed there for nine straight games, turning that stretch into some of the most confident basketball of his young career. His 21-point night against the Wizards was the highlight, a performance full of activity and poise. But he never treated the role like it belonged to him. “I don’t consider that I have any staying power. I try to go out there like this can end tomorrow because it can,” he said after that career night. “Every time I go out, I assume it can be taken from me.” Soon enough, it was. Three games later against Philadelphia, he played just eight minutes and never returned after halftime. The next few games brought similar swings. His matchups changed. His minutes tightened. A young player could have easily slipped into frustration. Instead, Minott carried the same grounded perspective that helped him rise in the first place. “If you were poor and I gave you 20 bucks and then instantly took 20 bucks, you never really felt like you had it,” he joked. “It was nice, but I’m used to this position. That mentality didn’t just keep him centered. It prepared him for the next opportunity that mattered. Minott’s Breakthrough and a Glimpse of the Celtics’ Future Minott stepped into Sunday’s win over the Orlando Magic after Neemias Queta exited with an ankle sprain. What happened over the next stretch was the kind of subtle shift that can define a role player’s season. Boston went from up 4 to up 23 during the minutes Minott played as a small-ball center. His energy changed the pace. Cutting and screening gave the offense movement. Defense turned into transition chances. And his shooting, including two timely threes, kept the Magic guessing. He finished with 16 points on 7-for-8 shooting, added 7 rebounds and a block. More than the numbers, it was the feel of his minutes that stood out. “I thought Josh gave us some great stuff,” Joe Mazzulla said. “His shooting, his screening, turning defense into offense. He sparked a lot of what we were doing. This is the version of Minott that fits exactly where the Celtics want to go. He does not need the ball. He does not disrupt the structure. His pace makes the players around him more comfortable. In small-ball lineups, he unlocks speed. On the wing, he gives the Celtics another defender who can switch, chase, rebound and stay active without needing plays designed for him. As the rotation tightens when Tatum returns, those qualities matter even more. Boston values versatility. They value discipline. They value players who can slide into different spots depending on what the game demands. Minott checks each of those boxes without stepping outside himself. He is the kind of player who makes the team’s identity stronger. What’s Next for Minott and the Celtics? Josh Minott has spent this season moving between opportunity and uncertainty, but he has handled both with the same steady approach. He understands that nothing is guaranteed, and he plays like someone who respects every minute he gets. The Celtics don’t need him to be loud. They need him to be present. If he continues to lean on effort, versatility and a grounded mindset, Minott may become one of the most meaningful developments of Boston’s season. His role doesn’t require hype. It only requires more of what he’s already giving. And the more he gives, the clearer it becomes that the Celtics might have found something real.

An era of Android is ending: Google Assistant gets its sunset timeline

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL; DR Google has quietly confirmed a timeline for Google Assistant’s retirement. Introduced in 2016, the Google Assistant will likely breathe its last just before its 10th birthday. According to a banner on Google’s support forum, Assistant will remain available “until March 2026.” For almost a decade now, millions of Android devices have spoken the language of the Google Assistant. However, more recently, Google has made it clear that Gemini is its new digital helper, replacing Assistant across multiple platforms, including Android phones, Android Auto, Wear OS, Google TV, and others. Now, Google has quietly confirmed when Google Assistant will take its final bow. Don’t want to miss the best from Android Authority?

A banner spotted (h/t Assemble Debug) on Google’s official Android Auto support forum reveals that Google Assistant will continue to work on Android “until March 2026.” It’s the clearest timeline Google has offered till now about Assistant’s impending farewell. In the same notice, Google reassures users that “Gemini will understand the same commands as Google Assistant and also give you the option to speak naturally.” Google For many Android users, especially those with Google Home devices, this is a big moment. Google’s transition from Assistant to Gemini on Google Home devices hasn’t been entirely smooth, with many users still preferring Assistant over the AI chatbot. However, Google Assistant’s demise was inevitable, as the company rapidly transitions to its Gemini-powered era. The Google Assistant emerged in May 2016, first tucked into the short-lived Allo messaging app and the original Google Home speaker, before becoming an integral feature of Android phones. It was and will remain one of Google’s most defining consumer-tech features of all time, one that eventually spread across phones, watches, TVs, cars, and nearly every corner of Google’s ecosystem. Now, as Google moves toward fully transitioning to Gemini, Assistant’s successful near-10-year run seems to be approaching its final chapter. Android users can still choose between Gemini and Google Assistant for now, but it looks like this choice won’t be available for long. Follow.

Constitution Not Adequate for President ‘As Evil as Trump’—Former WH Lawyer

Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb has said President Donald Trump’s attacks on the judiciary seek to “weaken one of the only remaining pillars standing up to him.” Discussing the legality of strikes on alleged drug smuggling boats in the Caribbean Sea, Cobb-a senior administration lawyer in Trump’s first term-said Americans were concerned about the president’s “unprecedented” abuses of power. “The Constitution, really, is not adequate to deal with a president as evil as Trump is-somebody who desires to accumulate and abuse power,” Cobb said. Why It Matters Since early September, the United States has carried out strikes in the Caribbean and Pacific Ocean against alleged drug boats that have killed at least 83 people. According to the Trump administration, the attacks are legitimate, with Trump deploying his authority as commander in chief to take action against a “designated terrorist organization.” The U. S. has deployed the world’s largest aircraft carrier and its strike group to the Caribbean Sea as the military’s campaign on alleged drug smuggling vessels continues. The intensive military buildup is seen as a way to pressurize Venezuela’s authoritarian socialist leader, Nicolás Maduro. The U. S. has accused him of heading a drug cartel, which he denies. What To Know On Sunday, Cobb discussed the president’s actions on MS NOW’s The Weekend, “The main concern is always his resort to violence and authoritarianism.” He cited Trump’s deployment of the National Guard as an example, adding, “Never before in American history, I don’t think, have most Americans been as concerned about their president and his demented narcissism leading him toward revenge and violence. Trump’s abuses of power are unprecedented,” the attorney added, saying the administration was committing war crimes in Venezuela and Colombia. “There is a war, and we should be very concerned about it,” Cobb said. “Lawyers and judges-and, certainly, soldiers this week-should understand that they don’t have to follow illegal orders.” He said of the strikes on alleged drug boats: “There is no question under international law and domestic law that what’s going on in those countries is murder. There’s one standard-which is self-defense, imminent harm-that would allow you to kill civilians in a war or during peace time. “And keep in mind, none of these people, if they were in the United States with a million times the amount of drugs that are on those tiny boats-they would be arrested and detained and they would go to prison. They would not be killed.” Tommy Pigott, a spokesperson for the State Department, previously told Newsweek: “The U. S. is engaged in a counter-drug cartel operation to advance President Trump’s pledge to secure our border, combat narco-terrorists, and stop the flow of deadly drugs into our country. “Maduro is not the legitimate leader of Venezuela; he’s a fugitive of American justice who undermines regional security and poisons Americans.” What People Are Saying Chief Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell said in a statement: “Our current operations in the Caribbean are lawful under both U. S. and international law, with all actions in complete compliance with the law of armed conflict.” Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro said in English during a meeting with labor unions in Caracas last month: “Yes peace, yes peace forever. Peace forever. No crazy war, please!” What Happens Next.

Weekend rally boosts Bitcoin, altcoins face heavy losses

Bitcoin rallied over the weekend after sharp weekly losses, driven by thin market liquidity, CME futures gaps, and major geopolitical developments. Bitcoin experienced a weekend rally following a week of significant losses across cryptocurrency markets, according to market data. The digital asset had approached critical support levels earlier in the week, while numerous altcoins including Hyperliquid (HYPE) and Zcash (ZEC) recorded double-digit percentage losses over the seven-day period. The weekend price increase follows a pattern observed over recent weeks, in which Bitcoin (BTC) has gained ground on Saturdays and Sundays before resuming declines during weekdays, according to chart analysis. Market observers have attributed this phenomenon to reduced liquidity during weekend trading periods. Cryptocurrency markets brace for Bitcoin and alt-coin rally Cryptocurrency markets experience dramatically lower trading volumes at weekends, when Bitcoin exchange-traded funds on Wall Street are closed and institutional investors are not actively trading. Research published by Advances in Consumer Research in August found that trading volumes tend to be 20% to 25% lower at weekends, “creating a thinner market environment where momentum-driven trades can exert greater price impact.” The study determined that weekend momentum strategies “consistently outperform their weekday counterparts across all cryptocurrencies, with mean daily returns on weekends often doubling those on weekdays.” The effect appears more pronounced among digital assets with smaller market capitalizations, according to the research. Bitcoin futures traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange close at the end of the working week. The price movements that occur during weekend trading create what market participants refer to as the “CME gap,” with prices frequently reverting to pre-weekend levels once futures markets reopen, according to market analysts. Beyond trading volume factors, specific developments may have contributed to the weekend price movement. Ongoing negotiations to end the conflict in Ukraine have progressed, with talks taking place in Switzerland between delegates from the United States and Ukraine over the weekend. Former President Donald Trump has proposed a 28-point peace plan as part of diplomatic efforts. Futures across the Dow Jones, S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 all rose on Monday morning as investors assessed the diplomatic developments, according to market data. The Federal Reserve’s decision to leave open the possibility of an additional rate cut next month may have also influenced market sentiment. Bitcoin faces near-term challenges in attempting to breach key resistance levels. The Thanksgiving holiday week in the United States will see Wall Street closed on Thursday and operating for only a half-day on Friday, resulting in reduced trading volumes similar to weekend conditions. Bitcoin recorded its first weekly close in positive territory in four weeks, according to market data. However, the cryptocurrency remains down 23% for the current quarter, placing it on track for its worst year-end performance since 2018.

„Злосторница: Част 2“ оглави боксофиса на Северна Америка с приход от 150 милиона долара

Само година след като първата част завоюва хиляди зрители, „Злосторница: Част 2“ направи впечатляващо стъпване, генерирайки 150 милиона долара в кината в Северна Америка и общо 226 милиона долара по света, според новини от Асошиейтед прес. Това е нов рекорд, който надминава 112 милиона долара от първия филм, и е второто най-добро начало за годината след „Майнкрафт: Филмът”, който събра 162 милиона долара през дебютния си уикенд. „Юнивърсъл“ започна прожекциите на „Злосторница: Част 2“ в кината по-рано през седмицата, като предварителните сеances донесоха 6, 1 милиона долара в понеделник от 1050 киносалона и 6, 5 милиона долара в сряда от 2300 киносалона. До петък филмът се излъчваше в 4115 киносалона в Северна Америка и постигна 68, 6 милиона долара. IMAX прожекциите добавиха 15, 5 милиона долара, което представлява 11% от приходите в САЩ най-добрият резултат за ноември за компанията. Както и при първия филм, женската аудитория преобладава през дебютния уикенд, съставлявайки около 71% от зрителите, според наредени анкети на PostTrak. Отзивите от критиците са смесени, докато публиката е категорична 83% от зрителите биха препоръчали филма на своите приятели. Режисьор на двата филма „Злосторница“ е Джон М. Чу, а в тях участват Синтия Ериво и Ариана Гранде. Първата част спечели над 758, 7 милиона долара по целия свят и беше номинирана за 10 „Оскара“ (от които спечели два в категориите за костюми и дизайн). Въпросът остава докъде ще стигне „Злосторница: Част 2“. Общите разходи за производството на двата филма се оценяват на около 300 милиона долара, без включени разходи за реклама и маркетинг. Два други филма също излязоха на екран този уикенд, но с по-слаби резултати. Филмът с Брендан Фрейзър „Семейство под наем“ (Rental Family) стартира в 1925 киносалона и спечели 3, 3 милиона долара. Финландският екшън Sisu: Road to Revenge, разпространяван от „Сони“, беше представен в 2222 киносалона и спечели около 2, 6 милиона долара. На второ място се нареди „Зрителна измама 3“ (Now You See Me: Now You Don’t) с 9, 1 милиона долара през своя втори уикенд, последван от „Хищникът: Опасна зона“ (Predator: Badlands) с 6, 3 милиона долара през третия уикенд. „Бягащият човек“ (The Running Man) остана на четвърто място с 5, 8 милиона долара, което е спад от 65% спрямо дебюта му от предходната седмица. Успехът на „Злосторница: Част 2“ е от изключително значение за индустрията, която навлиза в края на годината. „Това поставя основите за силен завършек на годината“, коментира Пол Дергарабедиан, ръководител на пазарните тенденции в Comscore.

Amiri Opens First European Store – in Milan

MILAN Amiri is opening its first European flagship store, in Milan. The store follows the opening of the brand’s European headquarters in Milan earlier this year, marking the brand’s increased focus on the country and the continent. The interior design is evocative of classic luxury hotels, or private residences in the Hollywood Hills also evoking a movie set. The unit juxtaposes natural textures of wood and travertine and limestone on a checkered quartz floor, reminiscent of 1920’s architecture. Amiri footwear is displayed against pale green-toned onyx walls and shelves, tactile banquette seating in draped velvet in the background. Wallpaper and soft, pre-loved fabrics in muted hues contrast with sleek limestone and travertine shelving. A bespoke beveled glass bar and tapestry artworks woven into wooden boiserie feature on the lower floor. Vintage furniture and art objects Art Deco lamps, Terrazza sofas, vintage tables dot the flagship. This is the 30th store for the L. A.-based brand since debuting with its first flagship on Rodeo Drive in 2020. In 2019, Italian fashion group OTB founded by Renzo Rosso, took a minority stake in Amiri, founded by the designer in 2014. The brand has garnered a who’s who of celebrity fans including Justin Bieber, Beyoncé, Taylor Swift, Alicia Keys and Post Malone, to name a few. Amiri seasonally shows at Paris Fashion Week. Here, exclusively with WWD, the designer elaborates on the opening and the future of his brand. WWD: What are your thoughts on Milan? Why did you choose this city to open your first boutique in Europe, and what do you think of this specific location? Mike Amiri: Milan is a key fashion destination not just for us, but for the world. Opening this space here, for me, is a clear statement of where Amiri stands in the global luxury landscape. Italy is one of the central hubs of our manufacturing, and Milan is where we established our European office earlier this year, so opening our first European flagship here was in complete alignment. The energy of Milan has always connected with my idea of Amiri craftsmanship, a tailoring tradition, a sense of dynamic modernity. It’s an amazing space, that enables us the scope to create a retail environment that really expresses the Amiri universe. It offers visitors a sense of openness, but also discovery. WWD: How would you describe the interior design and how does this boutique differs from other Amiri stores? M. A.: Including this new Milan flagship, our retail network now comprises 31 standalone boutiques globally and these are for us, a fundamental opportunity for storytelling through an entire immersive environment. A lot of people speak about the “experiential,” and that is important for us coming from Hollywood, for me there’s a sense of these spaces as almost like set pieces, or stages to help us convey our brand narrative. They are a key context for the clothes, to help bring a visitor into our world. This retail space has a number of distinct identities, for different facets of our product offering but also different expressions of creativity. It’s also a melding of worlds references to America’s West Coast, our birthplace, our home and our adopted home here of Milan. So there are nods to the 1920s, a sleek elegance of design, combinations and juxtapositions of different tactile surfaces like limestone, marble, velvet, wood boiseries and custom tapestries, that create panoramas for our clients to explore. In all our retail spaces, we try to have some kind of response to the local community, to create something unique and tailored to that space, that culture. I love that this space feels like it could be either an Italian palazzo, or a private home, or a luxurious hotel in the Hollywood Hills. It’s transporting. WWD: Where would you like to open new stores in the near future? Are there any projects already underway? M. A: For me, it’s less about rapid expansion and more about placing boutiques where the culture feels aligned. I want every opening to be intentional, a space that contributes to the local creative dialogue rather than simply occupying a name on a map. We have been expanding around the world across the past 12 months and while we have plans to continue expanding next year, for now, our focus is on this milestone of our Milan flagship, and this new footprint in Europe. WWD: How many wholesale points of sale currently carry Amiri? M. A.: Our wholesale network comprises approximately 150 luxury accounts, operating across nearly 400 points of sale worldwide. It’s a true reflection of Amiri’s global reach and resonance with cultures and communities. WWD: What are the brand’s bestsellers? M. A.: Our bestsellers truly span categories total looks resonate with our clients, which is something satisfying, that they want to buy into the entirety of our Amiri vision, and feel a true part of our world. Tailoring is also one of our strongest segments, for both men and women, day and evening our clients respond to the craftsmanship Inherent to that, and it’s become a hallmark of Amiri, and one of our signifiers. Additionally, accessories are experiencing particularly rapid growth, especially footwear and women’s bags, which are a key category for us. Alongside the innovation we showcase in our runway shows, we’re building on enduring signatures, season after season, and our clients are responding. WWD: What are your personal dreams or long-term ambitions?.
