University of North Carolina freshman Nassir Little has had a very good NCAA Tournament so far, scoring 19 points in the win over Iona and then 20 points in the win over Washington in the Midwest Region.
Little has been one of the best players on the floor in both games, despite struggling at times during the regular season. His emergence is important for a national championship run for the Tar Heels as they prepare for their Sweet 16 matchup against Auburn on Friday.
But there might be a road bump for Little.
Head coach Roy Williams met the media on Thursday with the Tar Heels in Kansas City prepping for Friday’s game and revealed some bad news regarding Little.
