North Carolina no longer needs Marcus Paige's shooting -- and that's a good thing
Posted Mar 31, 2016
UNC's all-time leader in 3-pointers hasn't had to make 3-pointers for the Tar Heels to win in 2015-16. His team's overall improvement has made Marcus Paige's role less vital. This is, undoubtedly, a good thing. Paige's sudden uptick in shooting? Bonus! "There is a big difference," Roy Williams said. "[In the past], if Marcus didn't play well, we didn't win."
