'Larry from the Prairie': UNC's Brady Manek hopes to 'keep proving everybody wrong'
Posted Jun 18, 2022
A glance across the gym during the Indiana Pacers' pre-draft workout Friday, and it may have looked like hometown hero Larry Bird was trying out for the team. The hair, height and even a corner 3-pointer were all eerily similar, but nope, that wasn't Bird. That was UNC standout Brady Manek, or as some call the Oklahoma native, "Larry from the Prairie."
