Former Tar Heel stars Paige, Johnson impressed with current team

Posted Feb 19, 2017
Former UNC stars Brice Johnson and Marcus Paige know a thing or two about winning. And after the two were honored at halftime of the Tar Heels’ game against Virginia, they each told ESPN they saw some great winning traits out of this year’s North Carolina squad. “They’re good,” said Johnson, who’s seen them in person a couple times this year. “I watch every game that I can."
