New Charlotte Hornet Tyler Hansbrough gives all he has
Posted Sep 26, 2015
Tyler Hansbrough is fit, his arms and shoulders broad. But he’s a lean 6-foot-9 and 250 pounds. He played his first four NBA seasons for Indiana and the past two for Toronto. The Hornets signed him in July. “I’ve always wanted to be here,” he says. “This is home to me. It’s a great feeling. This is something that I’ve wanted since I’ve been in the league.“
