Augustin has posted decent numbers since being selected ninth overall in the 2008 draft, averaging 14.4 points and 6.1 assists in 2010-11 and 11.1 and 6.4 last season.

Someone named Evan Massey from something called CenterStageSports.com claims that Tyler Hansbrough could be headed back to North Carolina, where he played his college ball, in exchange for Augustin.
