1. Marcus Paige takes over at NC State

It was a game to remember for the Tar Heels against NC State. A game where the Heels fell behind early and had to play catch up to win the game.

Wolfpack sophomore T.J. Warren showed why he was the ACC Player of the Year by dropping 36 points in what looked like an NC State victory. That is until Marcus Paige happened.

Paige took over the game in the second half and lead the Heels on a comeback to tie the game and send it to overtime. In overtime,  the Heels trailed by one before Paige took the ball the length of the court and hit a lay-up with 0.9 seconds left to win the game for North Carolina. Paige finished with 35 points.

It was one of the best games in college basketball as Warren and Paige went at it until the end. But in the end, the Heels prevailed.
