Williams: UNC trio undecided on NBA
Posted Apr 18, 2008
Quentin Thomas and Surry Wood said their goodbyes to fans Thursday night at the basketball team's end-of-season awards ceremony. But it is still unclear whether three underclassmen -- Tyler Hansbrough, Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington -- will bid the Tar Heels adieu as well. Roy Williams said the trio has not decided whether to jump to the NBA or return to UNC for another season because "we're not finished with the process."
