UNC rout could prove to be costly
Posted Nov 19, 2008
UNC blew out Kentucky 77-58 with one Tyler sitting on the bench Tuesday night. Now, they might have to worry about playing without another. Freshman Tyler Zeller – who started his second straight game in place of injured All-American Tyler Hansbrough – injured his left wrist on a missed breakaway dunk. He was fouled hard by Wildcats forward Ramon Harris, came down hard on his hand, walked off the court with a trainer, and was taken to the hospital for tests.
