Aggressive Little Making Impact

CHAPEL HILL —Nassir Little has carved out a role at third-ranked North Carolina: fly to the rim, attack the glass and get to the foul line.

He does it as the top reserve behind talented upperclassmen, not as a starter like many projected he would be as one of the nation's top freshmen. But Little has said he is driven to win a national championship. And if the best way to do that is coming off the bench for the Tar Heels, he's good with it.

"We're winning games, that's the formula that we have," Little said in an interview with The Associated Press.
