The future is bright for the University of North Carolina men’s basketball program, thanks to a 2018 recruiting class that ranks among the top five in the nation.

The class is led by five-star prospect Nassir Little, a 6-foot-7, 205-pound small forward out of Orlando Christian Prep in Orlando, Florida.

Little is the No. 7 overall prospect in the class of 2018 according to the 247Sports Composite. He’s the fourth-ranked player at his position and the No. 2 prospect in the state of Florida, behind only R.J. Barrett, the top-ranked player in the class.

Little is the Tar Heels’ highest-ranked recruit since James Michael McAdoo in 2011 and its first top-10 commit since Justin Jackson in 2014.
