Shy Hansbrough makes noise on court

Posted Jan 27, 2007

You might not remember Tyler Hansbrough from last year's North Carolina-Arizona game. He was that blur of white jersey and blue argyle who attacked the basket for 21 points and 11 rebounds, dominating the Wildcats in a 17-point Tar Heels' victory. The North Carolina forward has been a beast around the basket in Chapel Hill. Last year, he was a freshman — albeit a dominant one — still learning his way; this year, he's the focal point of the team. (Arizona Daily Star)
