Marcus Paige, JP Tokoto gear up for NC State
Posted Feb 24, 2015
In five games against the Wolfpack, Marcus Paige has averaged 18.8 points per game while shooting 44 percent. Against everyone else, he drops 12.7 points. Even this year, drawing more focus than ever before, Paige tallied 23 points in the two teams’ first matchup, which UNC won 81-79. “This year, he’s even got more of the defensive attention and the shot hasn’t fallen in quite as much,” Roy Williams said.
