Mitch McGary drawing comparisons to Tyler Hansbrough
Posted Jun 22, 2011

McGary, the No. 4 overall player in the 2012 class who draws comparisons to Tyler Hansbrough, is riding a wave of spring and summer performances, which captivated observers in every setting. However, McGary came very close to working in an Indiana mill rather than working the post against some of the best in the class.
