The Portland Trail Blazers agreed to a four-year, $28-million extension with forward Nassir Little, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.
Little averaged 9.8 points and 5.6 rebounds in 42 games before suffering a season-ending shoulder injury in January.
The 22-year-old has struggled to see consistent time on the court over his three NBA seasons, playing in 48 games in each of his rookie and sophomore campaigns.
Portland drafted Little 25th overall in 2019. The wing spent one season at North Carolina.
The Blazers' season opener will be on the road against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday. Tip-off is slated for 10 p.m. ET.
