NHL and the NHLPA Ratify Their CBA Extension Through 2030
The league and union announced in a joint news release Tuesday that the deal had been approved. It took a vote of the Board of Governors and the full NHLPA membership.
'The partnership between the Players' Association and the league is stronger than it's ever been, and working together under this agreement presents a fantastic opportunity to continue to grow the game,' NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said. 'We are grateful to the Board of Governors for its support of this agreement that strengthens our game and ensures we are collectively delivering a great fan experience in the years to come.'
The sides came to a tentative agreement on the four-year extension late last month. It includes an 84-game regular season, among other things. The full memorandum of understanding will be made public at a later date.
'This CBA shows what can be accomplished when the NHL and the union work together – an agreement that will allow for the continued worldwide growth of the game. That is a win for everyone,' NHLPA executive director Marty Walsh said. 'We could not have achieved this outcome without the involvement and support of our players. Special thanks to our executive board and negotiating committee.'

White House adviser Hassett emerging as serious contender for next Fed chair: Reports
White House economic adviser Kevin Hassett is emerging as a serious contender to be the next chair of the US Federal Reserve, The Wall Street Journal reported on Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Hassett met with President Donald Trump about the Fed job at least twice in June, the report said. Trump has previously said he has three or four people in mind as contenders for the top Fed job. Those reportedly include former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh, Hassett, current Fed Governor Christopher Waller, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. Trump has repeatedly criticized current Fed Chair Jerome Powell for not cutting interest rates and has floated the idea of naming a successor soon. Powell is due to leave office in May 2026.

Aces star A'ja Wilson injures her right wrist on a drive to the basket vs. the Liberty
Las Vegas star Aja Wilson injured her right wrist on a drive to the basket Tuesday night against the New York Liberty and left the game midway through the second quarter. The three-time MVP had a quiet first half before getting hurt with 4:13 left in the period. Wilson drove down the lane and landed awkwardly. She was on the floor for a few minutes as her Aces teammates rushed over to her side. Wilson got up and walked to the Las Vegas bench to an ovation from the Barclays Center crowd. Wilson made the first of two free throws–her only point of the half. She departed with 2:22 left in the half and headed to the locker room. She missed all three of her shot attempts but had four rebounds and two assists. She didn't come out for second-half warmups, and the team said she was out for the remainder of the contest. Wilson came in averaging 21.9 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 3.3 assists. Earlier in the night Wilson was selected by Caitlin Clark to play on her team at the All-Star Game on July 19 in Indianapolis.

Keith Homers, Drives in 3 Runs as Tigers Win Fifth Straight, 4-2 Over Rays
Colt Keith homered and drove in three runs as the Detroit Tigers won their fifth straight game, beating the Tampa Bay Rays 4–2 on Tuesday night. Detroit has outscored its opponents 19–6 in the winning streak, which started with a three-game sweep of the Cleveland Guardians over the weekend. Tigers starter Jack Flaherty allowed two runs in 6 1/3 innings, striking out eight. Tommy Kahnle (1–1) picked up the win after replacing Flaherty, and Will Vest pitched the ninth for his 15th save. Jonathan Aranda homered in the first, then doubled and scored to give the Rays a 2–0 lead in the third. Ryan Pepiot didn't allow a hit until Spencer Torkelson's 21st homer made it 2–1 in the fourth. Colt Keith tied the game with a fifth-inning single. In the seventh, Zach McKinstry walked, stole his second base of the game, and scored when Keith hit his eighth homer off Edwin Uceta (5–2). Key stat: Gleyber Torres singled in the fifth to extend his on-base streak to 21 games, one short of his career high. He's gotten to 22 twice, most recently in August with the New York Yankees. Key moment: After striking out Riley Greene to start the eighth, Rays reliever Eric Orze hit Dillon Dingler in the head with a 94.4 mph fastball. Orze raced to the plate to check on Dingler, but the pitch deflected off his cheek guard and did not cause an injury. Orze struck out the next two hitters to escape the jam. Up next: The teams are scheduled to conclude their season series Wednesday afternoon, although there are thunderstorms in the forecast. RHP Reese Olson (4–3, 2.89 ERA) is scheduled for the Tigers against RHP Zack Littell (7–7, 3.50).
