Why Marcus Paige will always be my favorite Tar Heel

Posted Nov 1, 2018
I haven’t seen anyone who was smarter, tougher or who played better when it mattered most than former North Carolina guard Marcus Paige. His 35-point virtuoso-like performance at N.C. State, which included seven 3-pointers, five assists and the game-winning layup in overtime was quintessential Paige — and it’s still my favorite Tar Heel performance ever. (Daily Tar Heel)
