Posted May 29, 2009
This year, Wayne Ellington is expected to go in the first round after averaging 15.8 points per game to help North Carolina to a 34-4 finish that ended with the Tar Heels defeating Michigan State in the national championship game. "Last year, you had guys doing their own thing, and I don't show as well in that kind of game," said Ellington, who is joined in Chicago by teammates Tyler Hansbrough, Ty Lawson, and Danny Green.
