Roope Hintz returns from injury for Stars in Game 4 against the Oilers

EDMONTON, Alberta (AP) — Roope Hintz suited up for the Stars in Game 4 of the NHL's Western Conference final against the Edmonton Oilers with Dallas trailing the best-of-seven series 2-1 on Tuesday night.
The team's No. 1 center sat out Sunday's 6-1 loss at Rogers Place with a lower-body injury after taking a slash from Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse to his left leg in the third period of Game 2.
Hintz warmed up ahead of Tuesday's matchup between Jason Robertson and Mikko Rantanen.
The 28-year-old also took the ice before Game 3, but didn't participate in line rushes and was scratched.
Hintz has five goals and six assists for 11 points across 15 playoff games this spring.
Selected with the 49th overall pick at the 2015 NHL draft, the Finn put up 67 points (28 goals, 39 assists) in 76 games during the regular season.

Jonquel Jones returns to the Liberty lineup, leads team scoring in win over Fever

NEW YORK (AP) — During the Liberty's lineup announcement Tuesday night, one name brought the Barclays Center crowd to its feet: Jonquel Jones. She held up a heart to the crowd. In the words of head coach Sandy Brondello — 'It's a happy day. JJ's back.' The Liberty star center officially returned to the court in New York's 98-84 win over the Fever on Tuesday night. Jones, last season's WNBA Finals MVP, was playing for the first time since June 19 with an ankle injury and scored a team-high 18 points. 'It felt great to be back out there,' Jones said after the game. 'Obviously, it's been a while since I've been on the court, but my teammates have held it down while I was out, and everybody was excited for me to be back in. And I was just as excited.' Jones, the Liberty's third-highest scorer, has averaged 12.1 points, 9.6 rebounds and 2.3 assists this season, while shooting 43.8 percent from behind the arc. New York struggled in her absence, going 5-4 after starting out the season 9-0. They are undefeated with Jones on the court. It's been a touch-and-go season for Jones so far. She'd been limited to just 10 games this season, initially injuring her ankle in early June and taking a brief absence before returning and aggravating the injury. ___ AP WNBA:
