King Kaufman's Sports Daily: It isn't money vs. class
Posted Apr 27, 2007
One of the freshmen who has announced that he's planning to enter the NBA draft after one year of college basketball is University of North Carolina forward Brandan Wright. "The hardest thing for me is leaving my teammates," Wright said at the press conference announcing his unsurprising and smart decision Monday. "Knowing that we had a great season this year and that those guys are going to have a great season next year, that was the hardest thing. That's the one thing that really made me think, 'What should I do?'"
