The real Brice Johnson shines in UNC's win over East Carolina
Posted Dec 7, 2014
North Carolina point guard Marcus Paige sat in the player's lounge after a 108-64 blowout of East Carolina. He was answering a question about Brice Johnson — the Brice Johnson who scored 19 points and had a career-high 17 rebounds. The Brice Johnson who had a double-double in the first half against ECU, the first time a Tar Heel player has done that since John Henson four years ago.
