Could Knicks Sign Nassir Little?

The New York Knicks have one of the best benches in the entire NBA, and they could make it even better before the season starts.

The team has one more roster spot to fill, and there are still some players in free agency who could be intriguing targets. Forward Nassir Little was just dropped by the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday, and he could be a player for the Knicks to take a look at.

Little has not gotten a lot of opportunities in the NBA so far, but he could perform well given the right situation. He only played 10 minutes per game this past season for the Suns, but he did well with the time he was given.

The last time he played significant minutes was in the 2021-22 season with the Portland Trail Blazers when he played 25 minutes per game. He averaged just under 10 points, five rebounds, and he did so on some solid shooting percentages.

Coming out of high school, Little was the second-highest ranked player in the country, only behind current Toronto Raptors wing RJ Barrett. He has not been given the chance to prove himself much in the NBA yet, but the Knicks could be a team to provide him with that chance.
