More Mitch McGary-Tyler Hansbrough Comparisons
Posted Jul 7, 2011
No matter where 6-11, 258-pound Mitch McGary played, coaches followed. McGary's game has been compared to former UNC All-American Tyler Hansbrough. In reality, the comparison is to Hansbrough's motor, which was nonstop, because McGary is far and away a better offensive threat than the former Tar Heel, both facing the basket, with his back to it, and putting the ball on the floor. Time will tell if he can draw as many fouls from the opposition as Hansbrough, but with his relentless style of play, he should.
