North Carolina has attempted fewest 3-pointers in ACC play, will test Syracuse zone in other ways

Posted Jan 26, 2015
The Tar Heels have taken the fewest number of 3-point shots in the ACC (in league play). And Marcus Paige has taken almost half of them. Paige is 18-of-40 (45 percent) from the 3-point line in league games. The rest of the UNC team shoots a combined 11-of-42 (26 percent). The challenge for Syracuse will be containing the Tar Heels in transition and dealing with their revolving line of big men. (Syracuse.com)
