Steph Curry returns from two-game absence to lead the Warriors to a win on Friday

Steph Curry suffered a pelvic contusion on Mar. 20 when he fell on his back against the Toronto Raptors. Without the All-Star guard, the Warriors lost two straight games, setbacks that were crucial in the tightly contested Western Conference.

Curry's returned on Friday to lead the Dubs to a well-earned 111-95 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. The two-time MVP did not shoot well in the second half, but his presence and playmaking helped fend off the resilient home team.

The win improved the Warriors' record to 42-31, but they remain in the No. 7 spot despite holding the same record as the LA Clippers. James Harden and Co. own the tiebreaker, giving them the edge over Steph Curry's team.
