The Word On ... Larry Nance Jr.
Hometown Hero
This week on Cavs.com, we’re focusing on one of Northeast Ohio’s own – Larry Nance Jr., the squad’s most versatile player and a cornerstone for the future. He’s also one of the league’s truly great guys.
The son of a franchise legend, Nance got better with each passing month during his fifth season in the Association, notching double-figures in 19 of his final 22 outings and averaging 14.6 points and 10.4 in ten starts.
He’s improved each year he’s been in the league since going No. 27 overall to the Lakers in 2015. But there’s so much more to Nance than basketball stats can explain.
