Paige, Okafor have incentive to play better in this UNC-Duke meeting
Posted Mar 7, 2015
Marcus Paige had a shot for redemption near the end of a disappointing performance at Duke. He missed it. Now, with 19th-ranked North Carolina (21-9, 11-6) hosting the third-ranked Blue Devils (27-3, 14-3) in an ACC finale Saturday night, Paige and the Tar Heels have an opportunity to redeem themselves at the end of a difficult regular season. Paige, not Duke freshman Jahlil Okafor, was voted ACC preseason player of the year in October.
