Tyler Hansbrough chasing 2,000th point

Posted Feb 26, 2008

Tyler Hansbrough's chasing Antawn Jamison. And by one measurement, he has already caught him. UNC's junior center tied Jamison's record Monday when he earned his seventh ACC Player of the Week citation this season. Jamison did it in 1997-98, a year that proved to be his third and final in a Tar Heel uniform. Hansbrough is 34 points shy of Jamison and 60 from becoming only the third junior in ACC history with 2,000. (Greensboro News & Record)
