Tyler Hansbrough provides tough competition

Posted Apr 4, 2008

Darrell Arthur has played against Tyler Hansbrough — well, once. In the summer of 2003, Kansas’ sophomore forward shared the floor with Hansbrough — then a high school junior — at the Nike Hoop Jamboree. Arthur might have trouble recognizing that Hansbrough today. That Hansbrough was a little lighter, a little shorter and his skills a little less polished. But the faint memory Arthur has of Hansbrough includes the one skill that made Hansbrough the face of college basketball. (Daily Kansan)
