07:52 AM ET 05.24 | It was recently announced that Duke Blue Devils head coach Mike Krzyzewski would remain the Team USA basketball coach through the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio, but there was still some concern about how his position at Duke would be affected. There was some discussion that Coach K could step down as Duke head coach to focus on the national team before retiring from coaching, but he put that belief to rest on Thursday when he announced that he would be staying with Duke for the foreseeable future.

07:11 AM ET 05.24 | Good news, Cards fans -- well, better news, anyway. The pair of February news conferences took on a tone of solemnity and reflection as general manager John Mozeliak and, a week later, Chris Carpenter, painted a picture void of optimism. Carpenter refused to utter the "R" word, but the idea of career finality was certainly palpable as he spoke. ... A little more than three months later, Carpenter is now beginning to believe he can do even better than that. An April game of catch with his son started a comeback trail that, if finished, would be as remarkable as any in Carpenter's career. He has come back from injuries several times before, but he has never made a return as unexpected as this.

NBA: Stephen Curry expected to join Team USA

07:59 AM ET 05.24 | Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry is unquestionably one of the best shooters in professional basketball and he was on fire early in the NBA postseason. Unfortunately for Curry and the Warriors, the San Antonio Spurs were too much too handle and they were bounced from the playoffs. Curry will have a chance to show his skills on a much larger platform, however. Curry is expected to join the Team USA basketball at some point after July's mini-camp. Team USA features one of the greatest groups of athletes in the world, but it is the lack of shooters that holds the team back. That will all change with Curry in the lineup.

07:19 AM ET 05.24 | The fiery new coach and his stolid boss, Joe Sakic, are quite different, but they now share in the same job description: winning games in Denver. The Avalanche had to play semantic games, carefully outlining the organization's decision-making hierarchy Thursday in announcing [Patrick Roy's] hiring as vice president of hockey operations and coach. Those were hints of the potential awkwardness. ... [Roy] wanted assurances that he was more than just a coach, a position the league treats roughly with the respect of a disposable razor. He got them. Roy won't expect to have, and won't accept having, only the coach's traditional marginal say in organizational decisions. It's up to the former teammates to make it work.

05:07 PM ET 05.20 | Jennifer Johnson was able to pick up her first LPGA victory yesterday. Other than bogeys on the first two holes in the first two days, she played very steady golf. Jennifer Johnson came out of nowhere on Sunday, and picked up her first win on the tour. She fired a seven-under par 65 in the final round, and picked up a much-needed $180,000 for her effort. She had a problem with the par-four fifth hole during the weekend, but back-to-back 65s will most generally win you a golf tournament.

06:20 PM ET 04.24 | NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver Kurt Busch climbed into a ride of a different kind on Tuesday as part of a media event to promote the V8 Supercars Series race May 17-19 at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas. As part of the promotion, Busch made a 20-minute run around the road course in a V8 Supercar, while Supercar driver James Courtney took Busch's No. 78 Furniture Row Racing Chevrolet NASCAR Sprint Cup car for a spin. "It was sure a thrill to get into a car that I have watched and admired for many years during all those Supercar road races," Busch said. "It was also a little weird driving the Supercar and watching my car stretch its legs down the straightaway." Before getting into the Supercar, though, Busch acclimated himself with the track by driving his familiar ride, his Sprint Cup car. "I had a blast driving my car on the road course and even more of a blast in the V8 Supercar," Busch said. "The Circuit of The Americas is an awesome track with a lot of interesting and fun turns." When it came time to climb into the V8 Supercar, Busch had a few things to get used to. Opening a door to get into the car, as opposed to climbing in the window, was the easy part. Busch had to get used to a car with the steering wheel on the right side and the shifter to his left.
