Marcus Paige finally in comfort zone

Posted Jul 10, 2014
Entering his junior season, Marcus Paige is burden-free. And that may actually mean he does less next season as the Tar Heels accomplish more. Paige became the first player to lead the Heels in both scoring (17.5) and assists (4.2) since Jeff McInnis in 1995-96. But with the offensive weapons added to the roster, he doesn't think he'll have to score as much next season. (ESPN.com)
