Orlando forward Nassir Little appeared to become an even higher priority target of Arizona and several other high-major teams after playing well earlier this month. Analyst Jerry Meyer of 24/7 Sports even said he catapulted into the Top 10 of the class of 2018.
But his momentum came to a temporary halt on Wednesday, when he injured his ankle while attempting a block.
“I’m done,” Little said Thursday, after watching his 1Family club lose in overtime without him. “It sucks — last tournament and unexpected last game for my AAU career. But I look at the bigger picture. There’s a lot more in store for me.”
