Stephen Curry puts up 29 in return, nearly hands Warriors win
SAN FRANCISCO — Golden State Warriors star Stephen Curry scored 29 points in 26 minutes Sunday night against the Houston Rockets, delivering a loud return performance from a 27-game absence that was missing only the final punctuation point.
Curry brought the Warriors back from 10 points down in the final five minutes and lined up a winning 30-footer at the buzzer, but the jumper missed long and the Warriors lost 117-116.
"Looked great when it left his hands," Rockets forward Kevin Durant said. "I was a little nervous seeing that ball in the air."
Curry's night started with a sputter. He volunteered to come off the bench to help manage his minutes and subbed in to the game for his brother, Seth Curry, with 4:54 left in the first quarter, getting a standing ovation from the crowd. In his first sequence, Curry had a flailing miss and committed a travel violation.

The Athletic: Steph Curry’s return shows why the Warriors can’t give up on this
On restricted minutes, Curry nearly led an upset of one of the league's hottest teams.
Steph Curry made 11 of 21 shots in 26 minutes off the bench Sunday against the Rockets.
At 38, after a 27-game hiatus caused by runner’s knee, he returned Sunday to a team comfortably in 10th place in the Western Conference. He rejoined a Golden State Warriors lineup — shuffled enough to impress a Las Vegas blackjack dealer — that had 10 minutes available for a G-Leaguer called up on Saturday.
And yet, in the final seconds, against the surging and motivated Houston Rockets, something irrational crept back in. Curry had the ball. And suddenly, victory felt possible again. The future reclaimed its potential.
