The Brotherhood of Brice Johnson And Marcus Paige

The bright-eyed freshmen were assigned as roommates for team road trips and immediately developed a strong friendship. “We lived together for four years at Chapel Hill,” Paige reminisced, now a pro with the NBA D-League’s Salt Lake City Stars (affiliate of the Utah Jazz).
