Early life

Maye was born in Cary, North Carolina, the son of Amie and Mark Maye, a former quarterback for the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill[1] Maye played high school basketball at William A. Hough High School in Cornelius, North Carolina where he made the Associated Press' All-State team twice.[1] Maye also played high school baseball for four years.[2]

College career

Freshman season (2015–16)

Maye committed to the University of North Carolina without knowing if he would receive a scholarship. Before he enrolled, he was informed by head coach Roy Williams that he would be on full scholarship.[2] He was seldom used as a freshman.

Sophomore season (2016–17)

In Maye's sophomore season, he recorded his first 10-point game coming off the bench against Davidson in December. Despite only having three 10-point games during the regular season, Maye had three more 10-point games during the NCAA Tournament.[3] In the Elite Eight game against Kentucky, Maye hit the game-winning jump shot with 0.3 seconds left in the game, shortly after Malik Monk hit a three to tie the game at 73 with 7.2 seconds left. He also had a then career-high 17 points in this game. For his performance in the South Regional, he was named to the South Regional all-tournament team and won the regional's Most Outstanding Player award. North Carolina went on to beat Oregon and Gonzaga to win the 2017 NCAA Men's Basketball National Championship. He finished the season averaging 5.5 points per game.[4]

Junior season (2017–18)

Maye had a breakout season as a junior in the 2017–18 season. In his first nine games, he averaged 20.8 points and 10.3 rebounds per game. This was the best start by a Tar Heel since Tyler Hansbrough's senior year in 2008-09.[4] He ended up averaging 16.9 points per game and leading the team with 10.1 rebounds per game. On April 23, 2018, Maye declared for the NBA draft without hiring an agent.[5] On May 24, Maye announced his intention to return to UNC for his senior season.[6]

Senior season (2018–19)

Coming into the season Maye was nominated for many preseason awards including preseason ACC player of the year. On February 5, Maye tallied 31 points and 12 rebounds in a 113-96 win against NC State.[7] On February 21, Maye scored 30 points and 15 rebounds in a 88-72 victory over rival Duke.[8] He averaged 14.9 points and 10.5 rebounds per game as a senior.[9]
