Tyler Hansbrough didn’t know if he would be playing on Friday until Roy Williams approached him with 15 minutes remaining in pregame warmups.

Williams indicated that the reigning national player of the year had practiced several days in a row, getting in a maximum of 25 minutes during each session.
