Marcus Paige Back?

Posted Jan 28, 2015
Following the 72-71 win over Louisville during which Marcus Paige hit the game winning layup with eight seconds left, the junior guard said he had jokingly told the his teammates, "I'm back." As it turns out, what Paige said as a joke may actually be true, at least in the five games since. After being rather up and down for much of the season, the past five games have seen Paige really lock in. (Tar Heel Blog)
