Celtics predicted to land Cooper Flagg in NBA-altering decision

Cooper Flagg grew up in Maine. He was a Boston Celtics fan. And so, although Flagg is currently the No. 1 overall pick with the Dallas Mavericks, there will be rumblings all the time about Flagg ending up back in New England to play for the Celtics. Advertisement Sports analyst, and noted Celtics fan Bill Simmons, believes that it'll happen. Specifically, Simmons predicts in 2031, Flagg will join the Celtics. MORE: A major update in LeBron James' trade talks from Lakers If Flagg lives up to the hype, he'll be a top-10 player in the league within a few years. And then if he's that good, a departure for the Celtics in his eventual free agency would be one of the league's biggest stories in years. No need to get too far ahead of ourselves, but yeah, Flagg to the Celtics would be quite the pairing. MORE NBA NEWS:

Ramp closure in south Shreveport for morning hours. Check out where and when

South Shreveport residents will see a change in traffic this month with continued work on the Interstate 49 southbound off-ramp. According to the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development, work on the Southern Loop off-ramp will result in the ramp closure starting July 7 through July 31 from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. DOTD said this is necessary to allow for construction on the new adjacent lane at the off-ramp. The purpose of this project is to provide increased traffic capacity at the off-ramp in an effort to improve safety by decreasing congestion and back-ups. According to DOTD, this entire project is expected to be complete in Fall 2025. More: New project coming to improve south Caddo Parish traffic.

NHL News: Former Bruins Forward Calls It A Career

A former Boston Bruin is officially hanging up the skates. Through a post on his Instagram account, former Bruins forward Tyler Johnson officially announced his retirement from the NHL. Johnson, 34, spent the final portion of his NHL career with the Bruins during the 2024-25 season. In nine games with the Original Six club, he recorded two assists, 10 penalty minutes, and a minus-1 rating. Advertisement Johnson's time with the Bruins ended last December when he and the team mutually agreed to terminate his contract. From there, Johnson became an unrestricted free agent (UFA) and did not sign with another club. While Johnson's time with the Bruins was brief, there is no question that the Washington native had a strong NHL career. In 747 career NHL games split between the Tampa Bay Lightning, Chicago Blackhawks, and Bruins, he posted 193 goals, 240 assists, 433 points, and a plus-19 rating. He also won the Stanley Cup twice as a member of the Lightning and was an All-Star in 2014-15.
