Sources tell cleveland.com that the Cavs and Nance agreed on a one-year contract for the veteran’s minimum early Tuesday evening — a deal that brings the 32-year-old Akron native back to the franchise where his father became a legend and where Junior spent three full seasons before asking for a trade in the summer of 2021.

Yes, Nance is primarily a power forward and center, but he's more than just another big man who poses a lob threat or serves as a rim protector. Nance has proven himself to be a quality playmaker, which is what Cleveland's bench needed after losing Ty Jerome in free agency.
