## Resource

Massachusetts lit up the sports world as AJ Dybantsa became the first native son drafted first overall in the NBA since Patrick Ewing in 1985, heading to the Wizards, while Alex Karaban joined the Kings at 29. Off the court, real estate giants NAIOP are walking away from rent control talks after the state’s highest court blocked the ballot issue due to a religious exemption — now pushing for faster permits instead. Meanwhile, Norwood’s abandoned hospital, shuttered six years after a flood, leaves 250,000 residents stranded with emergency response times doubled — and a failed Mass General Brigham bid leaves the community desperate for a solution.
