In quest for more scoring muscle, Tar Heels turn to Brice Johnson
Posted Oct 10, 2014
Brice Johnson says he is aware Marcus Paige cannot beat a team by himself. “I mean, he did against (N.C.) State, but that was one game,” Johnson says with a smile, alluding to Paige’s 35-point performance and game-winning layup last season. It’s mostly no laughing matter, and he realizes it. Someone must join Paige as an offensive threat. Johnson could certainly picture himself doing that.
