UNC trio dodges talk of NBA draft
Posted Apr 18, 2008
The elephant sat quietly in the back of the room and didn't make a sound throughout the entire evening at the North Carolina basketball awards ceremony -- until the very end. After the final words were said and the players and coaches were filing off the dais at the Dean Smith Center, a lone voice rang out from the stands. "One more year Tyler!" There was no reply from Tyler Hansbrough. Or Wayne Ellington. Or Ty Lawson, for that matter.
