Larry Nance Jr. Sends Optimistic Message to Fans as Cavs Season Ends

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Larry Nance Jr. posted a message on his Instagram thanking fans for their support this season.

Nance said that “the best is yet to come” in his post, showing that the Cavs are more determined than ever to get back to their winning ways in the 2020-21 season.

This past season was a rough one for Cleveland, as it went just 19-46. The team parted ways with first-year head coach John Beilein before the end of the season, but things started to change when J.B. Bickerstaff took over.

The Cavaliers were 5-6 in 11 games under Bickerstaff, prior to the NBA suspending the season in March.

Nance had recently made comments stating his desire to return to games this season, but with the NBA going with a 22-team return plan, Cleveland was left out.

The 27-year-old had one of his best seasons this year, averaging a career-high 10.1 points along with 7.3 rebounds per game.
