Stephen Curry was set to play about 25 minutes against Houston on Sunday night in his return from a two-plus-month absence because of a right knee injury. Coach Steve Kerr said before the game that it’s still unclear how many of the remaining games Curry will play given Golden State has five contests in eight days with a back-to-back the rest of the way. The schedule will be determined by how Curry feels and input from Vice President of Player Health and Performance Rick Celebrini.

UCLA women's basketball has won its first NCAA national championship with a 79-51 blowout of South Carolina. Lauren Betts was the catalyst at both ends of the floor, as she's been throughout her career. The 6-foot-7 senior finished with 14 points, 11 rebounds and two blocked shots, altering and preventing even the thought of several others at the rim to give UCLA its first national championship since a 1978 AIAW title. Betts had a similar impact in UCLA’s 51-44 shutdown of Texas in the national semifinals, a 16-point, 11-rebound, three-block performance that set the stage for her to win Final Four most outstanding player.
