Redshirt senior Nicole Kornet had certainly hoped for a more productive return to Texas -- shes from Dallas, about 100 miles from Waco, and had played in the Ferrell Center before during three seasons with Oklahoma.

She finished with nine points, but had only four points on 1-of-4 shting before some points down the stretch.Baylor: With consecutive games against top-10 opponents coach Kim Mulkey leaned on the returning players. The three freshmen for the Lady Bears are going to be standout players, but Lauren Cox was 0-for-4 shting with two rebounds in 4 minutes, and Natalie Chou was 0-for-1 with two rebounds in 12 minutes. Juicy Landrum didnt even play. All three got significant action in the season-opening rout over Houston Baptist.UP NEXTUCLA returns home to play at home twice in three days.

China Shoes Outlet . -- Whether Jeremy Hill deserves a prominent role in LSUs offence this early in the season is a matter for debate. PHOENIX -- The Phoenix Suns have made the signing of Jared Dudley official, and the nine-year NBA veteran pronounced himself the perfect person to bring veteran leadership to the young team.Dudley signed a three-year, $30 million contract and was introduced at a news conference on Friday, although he really didnt need an introduction. He spent 5 1/2 seasons with the Suns, and was part of the latter stages of the franchises high-energy Steve Nash era.He knows how to wear this jersey with pride, Suns coach Earl Watson said.The Suns have also agreed to terms on a two-year deal with another ex-Sun, guard Leandro Barbosa, but that signing wont become official for several weeks because he is in Brazil with the national team that will host the Rio Olympics.Dudley said hes secretly been wanting to come back here for years.Although hes only 6-ft-7, Dudley will play the stretch power forward role with Phoenix, a position he played last season with the Washington Wizards and on occasion with Milwaukee the season before.We wanted somebody to lead our group, general manager Ryan McDonough said, somebody with high-level experience in the NBA, Somebody whos been playoff tested, battle tested and somebody with leadership characteristics to teach our young players how to play, how to be professionals as well on and off the court.Dudlley fit all those requirements.ddddddddddddI dont think theres a more perfect person for this job at this time with this young team than me, he said.The Suns two first-round draft picks -- Dragan Bender and Marquease Chriss -- are just 18 years old.

For me ... its an everyday process to help them get better and Im excited about that.Dudley, who turns 31 on Sunday, has averaged 8.4 points in his career. Last season, he averaged 7.9 points for the Wizards, shting 42 percent from 3-point range. He is a career 40 percent shter on 3s.Dudley arrived in Phoenix as, as he described it, a throw-in in a trade with Charlotte midway through the 2008-09 season. But he worked his way onto the court and was part of the Suns team that lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in 2009-10 Western Conference finals. Statistically, his best NBA season was 2011-12, when he averaged 12.7 points with Phoenix. ' ' '
