Nassir Little's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Phoenix Suns forward Nassir Little has been waived by the team. Little's stint with Phoenix came to an end after only 45 games. He was acquired ahead of last season from Portland in a three-team trade that sent Damian Lillard to Milwaukee. The 24-year-old couldn't make an impact on his new team, logging only 10.2 minutes per game and scoring 3.4 points. According to Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic, the Suns plan to stretch out the $22 million remaining on Little's deal over three years. Little had a solid campaign in 2021-22, posting 9.8 points and 5.6 rebounds, but he has struggled to stay healthy and hasn't been a factor in fantasy hoops in recent years.

Phoenix Suns forward Nassir Little (knee) is listed as probable against the Boston Celtics on Thursday. The 24-year-old has been kept off the court with inflammation in his left knee and has played in only two of the last 10 Suns games. Little's absence has yet to matter a lot for the Suns, as he's been limited to only 12.5 minutes a night across 34 games this season. However, he could see some playing time if Eric Gordon (knee) is unavailable.

Phoenix Suns forward Nassir Little (knee) will sit out a fourth consecutive contest on Tuesday against Denver. The 24-year-old is kept off the court by inflammation in his left knee. Little's absence doesn't mean a lot for the Suns, as he's been limited to only 12.5 minutes a night across the season, although the former Trail Blazers could currently get some extra work with Devin Booker (ankle) on the shelf. His next chance to return comes on Thursday in a clash with Toronto.
