Draft Alert: Ty Lawson Showing His True Potential

Posted Feb 13, 2009
Ty Lawson must be happy about his decision to opt out of entering the 2008 NBA Draft. Ty has been playing out of his mind lately, and he has the Tar Heels flying high. Lawson has improved almost every aspect of his game this year. Compared to last year, he has improved almost all of his stats. By averaging three more points, one more assist, and less turnovers, he has emerged into a real leader for the Tar Heels. (Bleacher Report)
