Stitched up after friendly fire, Luke Maye returns to make impact

Posted Jan 18, 2018
UNC forward Luke Maye didn’t seem overly concerned about the friendly fire that created the need for facial stitches Tuesday. The result of teammate Kenny Williams’ first-half elbow in the Clemson game was five stitches on the side of his nose. What about the impact on his appearance? “I think it looks OK,” Maye said. “I already have a girlfriend, so it’s all good.” (Burlington Times News)
