Posted Nov 24, 2021
Nassir Little continues to bring energy off the bench for the Portland Trail Blazers, and that’s one reason they have won four straight games. Little scored a season-high 13 points in 23 minutes Tuesday in the Blazers’ 119-100 win over Denver. Three other Tar Heels have missed games early this week: Cole Anthony, Reggie Bullock and Danny Green. (Tar Heel Tribune)
