Hansbrough, Lawson pick another season at UNC over NBA draft
Posted Apr 11, 2007
It was designed to be a night to celebrate the accomplishments of North Carolina's 2006-07 men's basketball team. It turned into amateur comedy night at the Smith Center, with an emphasis on "amateur." Each doing so in his own way, sophomore Tyler Hansbrough and freshman Ty Lawson announced that they would return to school for another season of college basketball. Freshman Brandan Wright offered no such promise.
