Radford's big man a big draw
Posted Mar 17, 2009
The final score will be something like North Carolina 95, Radford 70, but that won't stop NBA scouts from hanging around until the end of Thursday's NCAA first-round South Regional basketball game. The majority of those scouts will be there for the specific reason of watching Radford center Artsiom Parakhouski, a 6-foot-11, 260-pound junior, work against Carolina bigs Tyler Hansbrough, Deon Thompson, Ed Davis and Tyler Zeller.
