ESPN's Jay Bilas thinks Marcus Paige can stick in the NBA

Posted Jun 24, 2016
ESPN’s Jay Bilas said he thinks Marcus Paige could stick in the NBA after the North Carolina guard was taken by the Utah Jazz in the second round of Thursday night’s NBA Draft. “I’m really glad to see Marcus Paige get drafted, because this guy has played so hard and so well at the University of North Carolina, and last year did not shoot the ball as well as he’s capable of shooting it,” Bilas said on ESPN’s draft broadcast.
