CARY — North Carolina coach Roy Williams said today that Tyler Hansbrough, Wayne Ellington and Ty Lawson have still not made final decisions about this year's NBA Draft.
"We're not finished, and we'll definitely have something before Sunday's deadline ... I met with a couple of them today and we're still going through the process," Williams said before a Tar Heel Tour stop in Cary.
He said the process has been harder than previous ones because "instead of talking to 10 teams about Brandan Wright, you're talking to 10 teams about three different players. So, it's been by far, the most exhaustive research — there's no question about that."
Contrary to Internet reports, Williams said that junior Danny Green has not been part of the process. Underclassmen must declare for the draft by midnight Sunday.
“Let’s put it this way … on Saturday, I was supposed to go on a recruiting trip,’’ Williams told the Rams Club crowd. “I cancelled the recruiting trip, I’m letting one of the other coaches go, just in case somebody needs some more input on Saturday, I’ll be available.”
