Luke Maye follows dad’s lead on court, in classroom
Posted Nov 15, 2014
This week, Hough High’s Luke Maye, one of the best high school basketball players in North Carolina, announced he would attend North Carolina and play for coach Roy Williams’ nationally ranked Tar Heels. Maye, a 6-foot-8, 235-pound senior power forward, said it was a dream come true. “I can’t believe this is happening for me,” Maye, 17, said Friday morning. Thirty one years ago, his father Mark said the same thing when he announced he would attend North Carolina to play football.
