Little’s fit in UNC’s cross screening offense was a bit haphazard. In high school, he found success as a freelance ball handler with who was given the green light to probe defenses and attack off the bounce.
One of the more interesting small subplots regarding Little is the change in his body type. In high school he was skinny and lanky, but by the time he reached the court at UNC he had added some muscle.
Little is a banger who can mix it up, even in the most physical environments. He is a quality on-ball defender who can switch among several positions and hold his own.
Without being able to point to a single outstanding skill, Little may have trouble finding minutes. He will be able to defend, even in the spacious NBA game, but on offense what does he do?
Because of the limited sample and the difficulty projecting a player who is as miscast as we believe Little is, his projections are all over the map.
