The case for UNC staying small (keep Cam in the starting lineup)

Posted Jan 10, 2018
Sure, Luke Maye's 32-point performance was the most by anyone in the Dean Dome since Wayne Ellington dropped 34 points on Maryland in 2009 and Maye's 18 rebounds were also a career high. But the big guys didn't seem to be missing in Roy Williams' favorite stat category as the guards got to the boards just fine, building the case for the success in going small. (WRAL Sports Fan)
