Nassir Little Gaining Interests From NBA Teams

According to Marc Stein, Nassir Little’s performance in the G League Showcase has put him on the radar of several teams.

Not only is Little on their radar, but there’s a large expectation of him signing with a franchise in the coming future.

In 16 G League games with Sioux Falls, the 24-year-old is averaging 16.7 points, 7.0 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in 33.8 minutes.

He’s considered to be one of the better wing defenders in the G League right now, which one veteran scout said, “He’s one of the better game-ready call-up guys.”

Little has spent five years in the NBA; four years with the Portland Trail Blazers and a year with the Phoenix Suns.

Per multiple reports, he has turned down overseas opportunities to remain in the G League to earn an NBA roster spot.

Nassir Little Waived And Stretched By Phoenix Suns

According to The Athletic’s Shams Charania, the Phoenix Suns have decided to create roster flexibility by waiving and stretching Nassir Little’s contract.

Little, now owed $22 million over three seasons, will be able to sign with a new team. Phoenix appears to want an open roster spot heading into training camp and the heart of the off-season of training.

The 24-year-old and E.J. Liddell were both waived by the Suns, which helps with roster spots and trade flexibility.
