Tyler Hansbrough scored 8 points and grabbed 7 rebounds off the bench in his debut with the Fort Wayne Mad Ants.
“Psycho T” is back in the Indiana Pacers organization, but definitely not in the spot that Larry Bird and the Pacers front office had envisioned when they selected him with the 13th pick in the 2009 NBA Draft.
In his college days at the University of North Carolina, Hansbrough was the cream of the crop. He averaged career numbers of 20.2 points per game and 8.6 rebounds. He was also highly decorated as he garnered several prestigious awards throughout his 4-year career, including the Naismith Men’s College Player of the Year.
