Charlotte Hornets 2015-2016 season previews: Tyler Hansbrough
Posted Sep 25, 2015
Tyler Hansbrough is a basketball legend in North Carolina. That was, of course, at UNC. Hansbrough was the star on a team chock full of NBA players including Ty Lawson, Danny Green, Ed Davis, and Tyler Zeller (big brother of current Hornet Cody Zeller) and led the Tar Heels to a national championship in 2009. Since his college days, Hansbrough has enjoyed a quiet NBA career as a role player for the Indiana Pacers and Toronto Raptors.
