Williams plans to give Hansbrough a break

Posted Jun 22, 2006

Coach Roy Williams' plan for center Tyler Hansbrough sounds identical to his plan for Sean May before the 2004-05 basketball season, when North Carolina won the NCAA title. "Having some depth will allow (Hansbrough) to have less pressure and I hope put up the same kind of numbers with perhaps a couple minutes less playing time," Williams said Wednesday during his summer news conference.
