Marcus Paige shows he knows when North Carolina needs him most
Posted Apr 3, 2016
Through the first 32 games of his senior season with the North Carolina Tar Heels, Marcus Paige had missed 123 shots from 3-point range. If none of those had broken his confidence, then the four more he tacked on Saturday through the first 30 minutes of Final Four basketball against Syracuse were hardly going to leave a scratch. He just needed an opportunity.
