Hansbrough Ready To Flash Championship Ring

by Tom Lewis on Sep 7, 2009 11:41 AM EDT in Indiana Pacers News

North Carolina basketball enjoyed a big weekend celebrating 100 years of hoops excellence along with a championship last season. Indiana Pacers rookie forward, Tyler Hansbrough enjoyed the festivities although he sat out the alumni game to make sure his shin injury is ready for the start of camp.

Hansbrough and his 2008-09 championship teammates stood tall among all of the legendary Tar Heels with their freshly minted championship rings. According to this story, Hasbrough isn't one to flash his bling in the locker room, although for some teammates he may not be able to resist.

Then he (Hansbrough) was asked if he was first going to flash it at his new Indiana Pacers teammates.
The thought made him grin.

"Maybe the Duke ones," he replied.

He should probably

Make sure he goes to McRoberts, cause Duns can flash his back. I’m pretty sure B.Rush won’t be too impressed either especially considering he can just remind him of their Final Four matchup, but I’m sure Roy would be a bit upset about it. I mean, they got a bad draw going up against Davidson, didn’t they?

I’m glad Hansbrough is showing some humor though. Hopefully we can get more of that from him in the future.
