Tyler Hansbrough's Maui status uncertain

Posted Nov 22, 2008
After scoring 13 points in his season debut against UC Santa Barbara on Friday, North Carolina forward Tyler Hansbrough said he hopes to play in all three games of the Maui Invitational, which begins Monday. But after the game, coach Roy Williams wasn't so sure. "I dont know what we're going to do in Maui,'' he said after top-ranked UNC's 84-67 victory. The uncertainty isn't surprising; there's been plenty of it over the last three weeks. (Charlotte Observer)
