High school career

Little attended George Washington High School in Chicago, Illinois where as a senior in 2005–06, he averaged 22 points, 12 rebounds, seven assists, three steals and three blocks per game, as he earned team MVP honors.
Chipola College (2006–2008)

In his freshman season at Chipola College, Little averaged 8.9 points, 5.9 rebounds and 1.8 assists per game as the Indians finished with a 33-3 overall record. He earned Sixth Man of the Year honors and helped lead Chipola to second-place finish in the 2007 NJCAA National Championship.

In November 2007, Little signed a National Letter of Intent to play college basketball for the University of Kansas in 2008–09.

In his sophomore season, Little led the Chipola Indians to their fifth-straight conference championship and averaged 15.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists per game. Chipola finished seventh in the 2008 NJCAA Tournament as little was named both Player of the Year in the Panhandle Conference and an NJCAA All-American.
Kansas (2008–2011)
In his junior season at Kansas, Little appeared in just 23 games due to injury but was named the Big 12 Preseason Newcomer of the Year. In those 23 games (three starts), he averaged 4.7 points and 3.7 rebounds per game.
Little decided to redshirt the 2009–10 season in order to give his surgically repaired lower left leg time to heal and become more effective on the perimeter. Despite not playing for the Jayhawks, he did participate in practice throughout the season, as he gained more muscle and became more humble.
In his senior season, Little scored in double digits in three games to begin the year, but on December 16, 2010, Kansas suspended Little indefinitely after he was arrested on charges of battery, criminal damage and criminal trespassing following a pre-dawn fight with his girlfriend and others. He returned to action on January 12, 2011 and later recorded a career-high 10 rebounds against Oklahoma State on February 21. In 32 games (one start), he averaged 5.1 points and 2.9 rebounds in 13.7 minutes per game.
Professional career
In December 2011, Little signed with BC Dnipro-Azot Dniprodzerzhynsk of the Ukraine for the rest of the 2011–12 season. In 20 games for Dnipro, he averaged 11.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game.
In November 2012, Little was acquired by the Tulsa 66ers of the NBA Development League following a successful try-out with the team the previous month. He appeared in just 18 games for Tulsa in 2012–13 and averaged 4.4 points and 2.1 rebounds per game. He returned to Tulsa in 2013–14 and had a much better season, averaging 18.8 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.1 steals in 50 games.
In July 2014, Little joined the Oklahoma City Thunder for the 2014 NBA Summer League. On November 4, 2014, he was acquired by the Oklahoma City Blue. On January 24, 2015, he was waived by the Blue.
