Tyler Hansbrough was a big factor in the Pacers' close loss to the Bulls on Saturday, as he scored 22 points on 10-of-19 shooting with four rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 35 minutes.
His 16-18 foot shot was silky as he finally paid real dividends to Larry Bird, who has been criticized for his selection of the North Carolina product. Hansbrough left briefly after taking a shot to the head, and with his history with vertigo it's a situation to monitor, though it's not expected to keep him out at this time.
