Lakers News: Larry Nance Jr. Nominated For Dunk Of The Year At NBA Awards Show

Larry Nance Jr. has become a favorite for Los Angeles Lakers fans over his two seasons with the franchise. While he does so many small things to help the team, what he is most known for are his rim-rattling dunks.

Nance has put a few players on posters during his short career, but arguably the best one he’s ever done happened earlier this season against the Brooklyn Nets. Nance threw it down on Nets center Brook Lopez and had the entire Barclays Center buzzing for minutes after.

For the first time, the NBA will be doing an awards show after the season and in addition to the normal awards such as MVP and Defensive Player of the Year, they will be also doing fan vote awards.
