There was no official NBA game to catch up on from Saturday night, so the clean morning hook is tonight's Cavaliers-Pistons Game 7 in Detroit at 8 ET on Prime.

More than 300 biotech executives, investors and patient advocates are pushing for Rick Pazdur to be nominated as FDA commissioner, framing him as a stabilizing oncology-review leader after weeks of regulatory turbulence. The same roundup captures a broader confidence problem: Takeda layoffs, BeOne/AstraZeneca updates and Alumis dropping a once-hyped immune drug all sit under the same sector-pressure umbrella. The real issue is whether the agency can restore predictable review leadership without turning drug access into another political stress test.

OpenClaw v2026.5.16-beta.3 adds xAI Grok OAuth, `openclaw cron run --wait`, cached resolvedSkills, group-chat room-event handling, Codex projection fixes, restart trace logs and gateway reliability patches. The release is not cosmetic; it strengthens the boring edges personal agents need most. Auth, cron, sessions, compaction, channel routing and restart visibility are the parts that decide whether an agent feels dependable.
