P.J. Hairston: Back In Blue

Posted Jan 16, 2014
P.J. Hairston was perhaps the most active player during the Legends’ two-hour practice, his first with the team. And the former Tar Heel has plenty energy to burn off. For the first time in nine months, he has a game to prepare for. “I haven’t played a game since April in the NCAA tournament last year,” Hairston said after finally walking off the floor. “It’s just one of the greatest feelings to be able to play ball again.” (NBA.com)
