Marcus Paige Makes NBA Debut with Roy Williams Courtside

He had sat at the very end of the Hornets bench all night, only getting up during timeouts and after big plays. But as the Hornets continued to increase their lead late in the game, there was hope that the former Tar Heel point guard and All-American would make his NBA debut. (Inside Carolina)
