Star trio, plus Psycho T, give Tar Heels a running start at title
Posted Oct 17, 2008
Ty Lawson, Wayne Ellington and Danny Green are back roaming North Carolina's Dean E. Smith Center, the school's sacred basketball arena. After flirting with the NBA in the spring, the trio announced in June they would return for another season. Tyler Hansbrough already had announced in April he would skip the draft and return for his senior season. Getting back Lawson, Ellington and Green made the Tar Heels instant front-runners to win the 2009 NCAA tournament.
