ACC basketball weekly honors are determined by a vote of a 15-member media panel. Maye was recognized as the ACC Player of the Week for the third time this season, while Bagley earned his fifth Rookie of the Week accolade.
UNC's Maye scored 50 points and grabbed 29 rebounds (25.0 ppg and 14.5 rpg) in wins over Boston College and at Notre Dame. The Huntersville, North Carolina native added five assists and three steals while connecting on 21 of 34 shots from the floor (61.8 percent).
Maye had 32 points and 18 rebounds in a 96-66 win over Boston College, including 21 points and 10 rebounds in the first half. It marked the third time this year that Maye had a double-double in the first half. His 32 points were the most by a Tar Heel at the Smith Center since 2009. He was 13-for-20 from the floor and 4-for-5 from three-point range. Maye's 13 field goals tied for the second-most in any game by a Tar Heel in the last 15 years.
In UNC's 69-68 win over Notre Dame, Maye scored a team-high 18 points and grabbed a game-high 11 rebounds for his 10th double-double of the season. He was 8-for-14 from the floor with three assists and no turnovers, and he tied his career high with three steals.
