Heels, Hansbrough bounce right back
Posted Jan 18, 2007
Late in Monday's practice, Tyler Hansbrough was going up for a dunk when he was bumped by teammate Alex Stephenson, who was attempting to block his shot. Hansbrough was knocked horizontal in midair and fell an estimated five feet onto his back, where he lay for a few painful and nervous moments. Hansbrough suffered no serious injury but was sore enough that Roy Williams said he could not have played had the game been Tuesday night.
