2019 NBA Draft: 20 prospects to watch during the NCAA Tournament

Nassir Little, Forward, North Carolina (#11 Ranked Prospect)/Coby White, Guard, North Carolina (#22 Ranked Prospect)

The North Carolina Tar Heels look like they have a great shot at winning a national championship this season. They have some great freshman prospects as well. Nassir Little is a freshman forward who is projected to be a lottery pick. He is not having the season many expected him to have, but his potential is through the roof.

This season, Little is only averaging 9.4 points and 4.6 rebounds, but he has flashed his great potential plenty of times throughout the year. The former McDonald’s All-American has played sparingly throughout the year, which has played into his low numbers.

Little has plenty of potential, and this likely will be his only year at Chapel Hill. Carolina’s other impressive freshman, Coby White, has not had the same struggles as Little. White has excelled for the Tar Heels and has gotten even better as the year has gone along.

White is second on the team in scoring at 16.3 points per game. He also is averaging 4.2 assists. White has incredible speed which he uses to push the pace for the Tar Heels. He has played much better as the year has gone along.

Coby White has shown his incredible ability all year long. He put up 34 points in a win over Syracuse at the end of February. He had another 30 points performance back in November in loss to Texas. White could be a great point guard in the NBA. He has elite speed, and he has shown great ability to take care of the ball late in the year.

White and Little have North Carolina set to make a deep tournament run.
