Larry Nance Rumors

The Cavs have forced miscues on 20.0 percent of opponent possessions, far and away the top figure in the league. Handsy bigs Larry Nance and Andre Drummond have been constant pests — the two have nearly as many steals (28) as Utah’s entire team (32) — while Dante Exum has been an active nuisance after being pressed into service as an emergency starter at small forward. The amazing part is that they’ve pulled this off without committing an inordinate number of fouls or surrendering layups and 3s. The Cavs are fifth in opponent 2-point percentage and allowing a normal 3-point rate. If they keep up this unexpected U-turn on defense, a very surprising season could be in order.
