Paige delivers strong second half in UNC win against Kentucky
Posted Dec 14, 2013
In the second half, Marcus Paige racked up three steals in the first seven minutes. He shot 6-for-8 and made 8-of-8 free throws, scoring 21 second-half points. And with UNC up by just three points with fewer than two minutes remaining, Paige dropped in a rainbow of a floater, then alley-ooped to Brice Johnson on the very next possession in a backbreaking, game-sealing, arena-rattling display.
