Top-Three Recruit Nassir Little Could Be an Instant Impact Player on the Wing for UNC
Posted Sep 5, 2018
Roy Williams just about won the lottery with five-star small forward Nassir Little. The 6’7”, 205-pound Florida native was a highly touted recruit and is already a top NBA draft prospect for 2019. Even though he’ll likely only stay in Chapel Hill for one season, expect serious contributions from the freshman while he’s there. Little won MVP honors at the McDonald’s All-American Game.
