Marcus Paige has jammed shoulder, might miss tonight's North Carolina game

Posted Dec 1, 2012
North Carolina could be without as many as three of its top perimeter players when it faces UAB tonight at 6 p.m. Point guard Marcus Paige suffered a "jammed" shoulder at Friday's practice and might be unavailable, UNC spokesman Steve Kirschner said about an hour before tip-off. Reggie Bullock (right fingers) and P.j. Hairston (sprained knee) were limited in practice Friday, and their status for tonight's game is still uncertain. (Fayetteville Observer)
