Little entered UNC his freshman season as the nation's No. 3 recruit, the MVP of the McDonald’s All-American game and the co-MVP of the Jordan Brand Classic. The 6-foot-6 forward appeared in 36 games and averaged 9.8 points and 4.6 rebounds in 18.2 minutes. He said he’s now ready to move on to the NBA.
