After slow start to season, Luke Maye elevates UNC in strong performance over Gonzaga

Posted Dec 16, 2018
Luke Maye is a preseason first-team All-America selection and preseason ACC Player of the Year. So far this season, he hadn't lived up to that hype. That all changed in Saturday’s 103-90 win over No. 4 Gonzaga. Maye was in peak form, posting 20 points and 16 rebounds, all while sharing defensive duties on one of the best big men in the country, Gonzaga’s Rui Hachimura. (Daily Tar Heel)
