Advanced Stats: PER- 19.6, WS- 2.4, OFF RTG- 111.4, DEF RTG- 96.2, BPM- 5.5

Nassir Little has played in 31 games this season, but hasn’t found his way into the starting lineup for the North Carolina Tar Heels. One of the biggest questions about the NBA draft and Little are why he never became a starter or even a player who got significant minutes.

He averages 18.4 minutes per contest and never played more than 26 minutes in a game this season. Little has had games where he showcased his talents, but due to a smaller roles compared to other big name prospects his ability and game still remain somewhat of a mystery.

Heading into this season, many expected Little to be one of the brightest shining prospects in the Draft, but he simply hasn’t been able to put it all together during his time in North Carolina. The potential is there, however.
