North Carolina's Brandan Wright Heading for NBA Draft

Posted Apr 23, 2007

North Carolina freshman Brandan Wright said Monday he plans to enter his name in this summer's NBA draft. During a news conference with coach Roy Williams, the 6-foot-9 forward said he doesn't plan to sign with an agent just yet - a move that would keep open the possibility he could return to school next year. But Williams said Wright was almost certain to remain in the draft. (WRAL.com)
