Lucas: Oct. 6 Basketball Practice Notebook
Alums address the Tar Heels, competitiveness, details in focus.
By Adam Lucas
It was a normal Tuesday practice at the University of North Carolina, which is to say that watching from the sidelines were a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, an NCAA national champion assistant coach, one of only 50 20,000 point scorers in NBA history, and an Atlantic Coast Conference Player of the Year.
That's a halftime ceremony at most programs. At Carolina, though, it's just Tuesday. That's when Larry Brown, Dave Hanners, Antawn Jamison and Tyler Zeller watched the Tar Heels practice from the sidelines, taking in every drill during one of this week's spirited sessions.
