HOUSTON COUGARS NEWS

Jamal Shead - Questionable to return Friday Shead is questionable to return to Friday's game against Duke in the Sweet 16 due to an ankle injury, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.

Impact Shead grabbed his ankle after a hard fall and struggled to leave the court. His potential absence would be absolutely brutal for a Houston team that desperately needs him. Mylik Wilson replaced him and should be in line to see major minutes if Shead can't return.

Damian Dunn - Scoring punch off bench Dunn produced 17 points (5-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-6 FT), three rebounds, one assist and one steal in 23 minutes during Friday's 86-46 victory over Longwood.

Impact Dunn matched teammate LJ Cryer with a team-high 17 points while seeing 23 minutes off the bench in the dominant victory. The point total represented the most Dunn has scored since Jan. 13 as Dunn averaged just under 16 minutes per game in conference play. While a closer game may lead to a few less minutes for Dunn, a performance like this can't hurt his cause to see additional minutes as the Cougars progress through the NCAA Tournament.
