How far can UNC go without Lawson?
Posted Mar 20, 2009
Wayne Ellington, when told the street outside bore his name, just laughed. No, he said, he didn’t notice that when the North Carolina bus arrived. But Ellington played Thursday like he is ready for such honors. So did Tyler Hansbrough, of course. And Bobby Frasor, too. UNC looked sharp even without Ty Lawson in the lineup and roared to a 101-58 victory and a berth in Saturday’s second round.
