Hansbrough Returning For Senior Season
Posted Apr 26, 2008
Tyler Hansbrough, the 2007-08 National Player of the Year, will return to the University of North Carolina for his senior year and sophomore guards Wayne Ellington and Ty Lawson will declare for the NBA Draft but not hire agents, allowing for the possibility for them to return to school at a later date. "I am pleased and most supportive of the decisions made by all three young people," says head coach Roy Williams.
