Larry Nance Jr. News, Rumors, Updates - Cleveland Cavaliers

Non-factor in Monday's loss Nance supplied four points (2-3 FG), three rebounds, three assists and one steal across 15 minutes during Monday's 113-103 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Nance continues to play limited minutes, logging fewer than 21 minutes for the third straight game. He has struggled to build any momentum since returning from injury, sitting outside the top 250 over the past two weeks. We saw Nance putting up 12-team value earlier in the season, but he really struggles when Zion Williamson (hamstring) isn't on the floor. Until Williamson returns, Nance is unlikely to be anything more than a possible stream candidate in fantasy.

Good defensive effort in return Nance (shoulder) finished Monday's 132-112 win over the Wizards with six points (3-6 FG), six rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals across 26 minutes.

Impact After missing last game with a shoulder injury, Nance returned with some better production compared to his previous appearances. He took only six shots in 25 minutes of action, but he added solid value with his rebounding and defensive stats. If he can get back to these kinds of minutes, the veteran forward provides great stream potential at the very least.

JANUARY 10, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Available Monday Nance (shoulder) is available Monday against Washington.

Impact Nance was unavailable Saturday against Dallas due to a sore right shoulder, but he'll be back in action against the Wizards after being listed as probable. He returned from a four-game absence Friday against Brooklyn and was held scoreless with eight rebounds and a block in 21 minutes.

JANUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Probable for Monday Nance is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Wizards due to right shoulder soreness, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact This is certainly a step in the right direction after Nance missed Saturday's game against Dallas with the same injury. The veteran is averaging 6.3 points and 6.5 rebounds per game since the start of December.

Sitting out Saturday Nance will miss Saturday's game versus the Mavericks due to right shoulder soreness, Andrew Lopez of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Nance rejoined the action following a four-game absence Friday, but he will be back on the sidelines Saturday in the second game of a back-to-back set. Nance's next opportunity to suit up arrives Monday against the Wizards.

JANUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Eight boards in return Nance (shoulder) recorded zero points (0-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds and one block across 21 minutes in Friday's 108-102 loss to the Nets.

Impact Nance was back in action after a four-game absence, but the lack of production on the offensive end rendered his return a rather uneventful one. Now that he's healthy again, the 30-year-old may see a slight uptick in playing time while Zion Williamson (hamstring) is sidelined, though Naji Marshall and Jaxson Hayes seem more likely to benefit from Williamson's absence.

JANUARY 7, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will play Friday Nance (shoulder) is available for Friday's matchup against the Nets.

Impact Nance has missed four straight games, three due to a neck contusion and one with right shoulder soreness. He was initially listed as questionable for Friday due to the shoulder injury, but it appears the versatile big man has moved past both issues and will return to game action against Brooklyn. Across 29 appearances, Nance is averaging 8.6 points, 5.6 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 22.8 minutes, but given his extended time off, he may see limited playing time Friday.

Questionable against Brooklyn Nance is questionable for Friday's game versus the Nets due to right shoulder soreness.

Impact Nance is questionable Friday due to shoulder soreness after missing the last four games with a neck contusion. He was considered doubtful for Wednesday's contest, so his upgraded status is a good sign that he will return soon. If Nance can't suit up Friday, his next chance to play will be Saturday's matchup with Dallas.

JANUARY 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Officially ruled out Nance (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against Houston.

Impact Head coach Willie Green said earlier Tuesday that Nance would "probably" miss Wednesday's game due to a neck injury, and the team's official injury report later in the day confirmed that notion, though he's now being listed with right shoulder soreness. With Zion Williamson (hamstring) also out, Naji Marshall, Jaxson Hayes and others in the frontcourt should be in store for increased minutes during Wednesday's matchup against the Rockets.

JANUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely to play Wednesday Coach Willie Green indicated Tuesday that Nance (neck) did not practice, and Nance is "probably out" for Wednesday's game versus the Rockets, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orlea...

Impact Nance continues to work his way back from a neck contusion and doesn't appear to have a particularly positive outlook leading up to Wednesday's game. Assuming he sits again, Naji Marshall, Jaxson Hayes and others in the frontcourt will likely see expanded minutes, especially with Zion Williamson (hamstring) already ruled out.

JANUARY 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Ruled out Monday Nance (neck) is out for Monday's game against the 76ers, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

Impact Nance is one of four players out for the Pelicans ahead of Monday's game, meaning they'll be short on their depth again. This will be Nance's third straight absence and sixth across New Orleans' last eight games. His next chance to feature will come Wednesday at home against Houston.

JANUARY 1, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Unavailable Saturday Nance (neck) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

Impact Nance suffered a neck contusion Wednesday against the Timberwolves and will be sidelined for a second consecutive game. Willy Hernangomez and Jaxson Hayes are candidates to see increased run once again.

DECEMBER 31, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Won't suit up Nance (neck) is out for Friday's game against Philadelphia, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

Impact Nance has been downgraded from doubtful to out Friday with a neck contusion. His next opportunity to play is Saturday's matchup with Memphis.

Unlikely to play Friday Nance (neck) is doubtful for Friday's game versus the 76ers.

Impact Nance will likely miss Friday's game after missing Thursday's practice due to a neck contusion he suffered against Minnesota. Willy Hernangomez and Jaxson Hayes are candidates to see extended minutes if he can't suit up versus Philadelphia.

DECEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Doesn't practice Thursday Nance (neck) didn't participate in Thursday's practice session, Erin Summers of Bally Sports New Orleans reports.

Impact Nance sustained a neck contusion during Wednesday's game against Minnesota, and the issue prevented him from practicing a day later. It's unclear whether he'll be available for Friday's game against Philadelphia or Saturday's matchup against the Grizzlies.

DECEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Won't return Wednesday Nance won't return to Wednesday's game against Minnesota due to a neck contusion, Will Guillory of The Athletic reports.

Impact Nance logged 16 minutes of action and posted no points (0-1 FG), two rebounds, one assist and one steal before exiting early with an apparent neck injury. The forward will presumably be deemed questionable heading into the team's next contest Friday against the 76ers.

DECEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Quiet in Monday's return Nance accumulated four points (2-4 FG), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 19 minutes during Monday's 113-93 win over the Pacers.

Impact Nance logged just 19 minutes off the bench Monday, making his return after missing three straight contests due to an Achilles issue. While it was great to see him back on the floor, his playing time and subsequent production were both a little underwhelming. Chances are he was on a minute restriction, and given the fact the game was a blowout, he was simply not required to log heavy minutes. He remains a hold in standard fantasy formats despite having a somewhat inconsistent role from one night to the next.

DECEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Will be available Monday Nance (Achilles) will be available Monday against the Pacers.

Impact This is great news for New Orleans, as having Nance available means they'll have 10 players in total for Monday's contest. The veteran big man is averaging 9.0 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.9 assists across 23.2 minutes per game this season, but don't be surprised if he ends up having a bigger workload due to how shorthanded the Pelicans will be in the frontcourt.

DECEMBER 27, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable Monday Nance (Achilles) is questionable for Monday's game against Indiana, Jim Eichenhofer of the Pelicans' official site reports.

Impact Nance has been unavailable for the last three matchups but will have a chance to return against the Pacers. If he remains out, Jonas Valanciunas, Jaxson Hayes and Willy Hernangomez are candidates to see increased playing time.

DECEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Friday Nance (Achilles) will not suit up for Friday's game against the Thunder.

Impact Nance will miss a third consecutive contest due to the injury. Willy Hernangomez and Jaxson Hayes should receive more run in his stead. Nance's next chance to play will come Monday against the Pacers.

DECEMBER 24, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable against Thunder Nance (Achilles) is questionable to play in Friday's game versus the Thunder.

Impact Nance has missed the previous two games due to right Achilles soreness. If Nance isn't able to suit up Friday, his next opportunity to play is Monday's matchup with Indiana.
