Larry Nance Jr Back to CLE

LNJ reunites with the Cavs.

His dad was a legend here. His brother had a small stint. He played in the 2018 Finals with the Cavs.

He has some injury questions but for the vet-min, can't beat it.

Wanted him back in Atlanta. Only worry is that he seemed to be very injury prone.

Just hope he can stay healthy. He's another guy who seems to get injured all the time.

Let's also get Mo Wagner and Lillard and let all the free agents go immediately to IR. Lol

I like Nance. If he is healthy, he is a nice rotation big for the Cavs.

Solid move. Cleveland really needed a backup big who can shoot. And nance is a solid defender as well. He’ll fit well with either Mobley or Allen.

Yes, but it’s immediately followed by knee surgery.

He’s gonna be 33 next season. I’ll take some 3s, rebounds and decent defense for 15 minutes a game.

The real Larry Legend.. :lol:

I love it, I haven't watched him play much since he was traded off the Cavs, a fan favorite/culture fit guy for sure. Can he still ball for 10-15 minutes per game on this squad?
