NBA will have to wait for Tyler Hansbrough

Posted Mar 31, 2006

The 6-foot-9, 235-pound forward from Poplar Bluff, Mo., didn't arrive in Chapel Hill thinking he might play one year for the Tar Heels then bolt to the NBA. Gene Hansbrough said he and his son never even discussed the possibility during a season in which Tyler became the first UNC player to lead his team in scoring (18.9 ppg), rebounds (7.8), field-goal percentage (57.0) and steals (38).
