Deon Thompson finds room in the post
Posted Nov 5, 2008
Defending National Player of the Year Tyler Hansbrough watched from the sideline Sunday as his North Carolina teammates played Vanderbilt in a scrimmage that was closed to observers in keeping with NCAA rules. As strange as that must have been for the senior forward -- who has never missed a college game but is out for at least another 10 days because of a "stress reaction" in his right shin -- it was doubly so for junior teammate Deon Thompson.
