Nassir Little Declares for 2019 NBA Draft After Freshman Season at UNC

North Carolina freshman Nassir Little announced his decision to declare for the NBA draft Monday:

Per Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports, he will sign an agent, meaning he will not get a chance to return to school.

"I am declaring for the 2019 draft with the intention to start my NBA career," Little told Jonathan Givony of ESPN. "I am going to work extremely hard throughout the pre-draft process and my entire career to continue to grow as a player and person. I feel like I have a very high ceiling as a player and I plan to reach that ceiling through consistent hard work.
