Ty Lawson’s absence strengthens Tar Heels
Posted Mar 7, 2008
The sight of an injured Ty Lawson used to be UNC’s worst fear. Sure, the team is built around bullish big man Tyler Hansbrough. However, a heavy premium was placed on Lawson’s health when Bobby Frasor suffered a season-ending knee injury. There wasn’t another solid ballhandler on the roster, and surely there was no one else who could get the Tar Heels’ high-scoring attack in gear like Lawson — or at least it appeared so.
