UNC needs Marcus Paige at his best now to remain in No. 1 seed hunt

Posted Dec 17, 2015
North Carolina will need Marcus Paige to be at his best, running a group that ranks third in offensive efficiency and clipping 118 points per 100 possessions on KenPom. Paige has to remain aggressive. He's UNC's best shooter, its clear leader, best defender in the backcourt and its best overall player. If he's not at his best, the team can't be. Roy Williams knows that. (CBS Sports)
