Why Hubert Davis Added Marcus Paige To The UNC Basketball Staff

Posted Jul 20, 2023
Marcus Paige never discussed with Hubert Davis any intentions to get into coaching, but Davis described him as an "extension of Coach Williams" on the court. "Not only did he know what he needed to do, he knew the responsibilities of everybody else on the floor," Davis said. Paige joined UNC’s coaching staff in June as director of team and player development. (Inside Carolina)
