frosh.

Little is a powerful 6'6" player with a 7'1.25" wingspan. He tested with a 38.5" max. vert. He averaged 9.8 points and 4.6 rebounds per game. He played only 18.2 minutes per game as a freshman on a loaded UNC team. ...Little struggled to hit the college three, making 26.9% 3-pt. FG. His 77% free throw shooting suggests he might have more touch than people believe. ...Despite having all the tools to be a good defender, Little was a slightly "minus defender". ...Little had twice as many turnovers as assists. ...Little was the MVP of the McDonald's All-American game and the CO-MVP of the Jordan Brand Classic. ...Both of Little's parents were in the US Military. Little struck us as a bright kid that should have no problem adjusting to NBA life. We envision Little being selected anywhere from  11th to 18th. ...By the numbers, Little would go undrafted. But he more than passes all eye-tests. He may need development time in the G-League in years one and two. If he proves he can knock down three point shots, he could payoff as a good player.

 

Good Advice: In 2012, the 22nd pick in the NBA Draft was Fab Melo. We advised, "Draft Draymond Green."
