Hansbrough a young star for the Heels
Posted Jan 8, 2006
Tyler Hansbrough is special and don't think these young Tar Heels don't know it. He challenges himself not to miss free throws, and two nights before this game Hansbrough went into the gym and made sure he hit a hundred of them. "They can't block my shot at the free-throw line and, yes, nothing makes me more upset than missing one," Hansbrough said. "Nobody's guarding me at the free throw line."
