Larry Nance Jr. is now a nice spot-up threat for the Cleveland Cavaliers.

It’s clear as day that over his first two full seasons for the Cleveland Cavaliers, big Larry Nance Jr. has worked tirelessly to become a viable three-point shooter off-the-catch.

In 2019-20, most notably, he hit a respectable 35.2 percent of his 2.8 triple attempts per outing, almost entirely off-the-catch. On spot-ups, he placed in the 65th percentile and had a healthy frequency of 24.
