Nassir Little is receiving attention from multiple teams after his standout performance at the G League Showcase. At just 25 years old, he is regarded as one of the top wing defenders in the G League.
“He’s considered one of the best players ready for a call-up,” mentioned a seasoned scout.
Last season, Little was under a $6.25 million contract with the Phoenix Suns but currently remains unsigned. Despite turning down lucrative offers to play overseas, Little is determined to secure an NBA contract. Sources indicate that a team is likely to sign Little in the upcoming weeks.
In the preseason with the Miami Heat, Little posted averages of 8.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 23.5 minutes across two games. Throughout 16 G League games with Sioux Falls, Little has been averaging 16.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 33.8 minutes.
