Villanova's Wright says Scottie Reynolds is his Hansbrough

Posted Mar 31, 2009
The two players are built very differently, at least on the outside, but Villanova head coach Jay Wright believes like North Carolina's Tyler Hansbrough and his point guard, Scottie Reynolds, are a lot alike. Sure, Hansbrough may stand 6 feet 9 and weigh 260 pounds, while Reynolds measures in at 6-2, 195, but according to Wright, both players deserve to be called "special." (WRAL Sports Fan)
