Nassir Little Waived By Suns
8 months agoPhoenix 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.

Nassir Little Probable For Thursday Against Boston
1 year agoPhoenix 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.

Nassir Little Will Continue To Sit On Tuesday
1 year agoPhoenix 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.

Nassir Little Out On Thursday
1 year agoPhoenix Suns forward Nassir Little (knee) isn't available for Thursday's matchup against Houston. The 24-year-old is dealing with inflammation in his left knee. Little played less than a minute in the last game against the Lakers, so his absence won't impact the Suns in any way. Following a decent campaign in 2021-22, Little's play has deteriorated, and he hasn't done anything to boost his stock this season. The former first-round pick has averaged 3.9 points and 2.1 rebounds in 12.5 minutes through 34 appearances.

Eric Gordon, Nassir Little Both Active On Sunday
1 year agoPhoenix Suns guard/forward Eric Gordon (leg) and Nassir Little (knee) have both been upgraded to active on Sunday against the Washington Wizards. So far, the Suns have been a revolving door of injuries, but they at least get two contributors back in this easier Sunday night matchup. Gordon will likely move into the starting lineup since Bradley Beal (ankle) is out. Little, on the other hand, will remain in a bench role where he sees around 20 minutes. Gordon becomes a startable option across all fantasy leagues again while Little would be more of an option for those in deeper leagues.
