National Player of Year in College Hoops is still in Chapel Hill
Posted Dec 13, 2008
When I say the guy in Chapel Hill, I’m not talking about the reigning National player of the year. No, I’m talking about his point guard, Tywon Lawson. No one may play harder than Tyler Hansbrough, but no one plays faster in college basketball than Ty Lawson. After testing the waters this off-season Lawson got serious about his game. What he lacked he now has; a consistent jump shot that has NBA three point range, better effort on defense, and improved ball handling skills.
