‘It just feels amazing’: Nassir Little shines in NCAA Tournament debut for UNC

Posted Mar 23, 2019
In one especially important stretch, Nassir Little scored in the paint on three consecutive possessions. “I just look at what the team needs,” Little said. “I felt like early on, we were taking too many outside shots. Before the game, coach and the coaching staff was telling me to be aggressive, and get easy buckets on the inside, and play inside-out.” (Daily Tar Heel)
