Brandan Wright optimistic about UNC's chances in NCAAs

New Jersey Nets power forward Brandan Wright would’ve been just a year removed from college at North Carolina had he not chosen to forgo his final three years of eligibility to enter the NBA draft. Incredible, isn’t it? Wright, 23, now in his third year in the league (he missed all of the 2009-10 campaign with a shoulder injury), has been following the Tar Heels very closely throughout their 2010-11 season.
