UNC's three avoid NBA talk
Posted Apr 6, 2008
UNC's three stars were more concerned with the immediate past, Saturday's 84-66 loss to Kansas in the Final Four, than their NBA futures. UNC junior Tyler Hansbrough and sophomores Ty Lawson and Wayne Ellington said they haven't decided whether they will return to the Tar Heels next season or leave early for the NBA. "I don't know," said Hansbrough. "I'm not going to talk about that because I haven't even thought about it."
