After being traded to the LeBron-led Cavs side, Larry was part of the rollercoaster ride to the Finals in his very first year in Cleveland. However, what has followed ever since is clearly not what he'd have planned looking forward.

In the 67 games he played this season, he started in 30 of them and ended up averaging 9.4 points and 8.2 rebounds per game. With a miserable 71% conversion from the free-throw line he didn't really have much of an impact on the proceedings down in Cleveland all year. Despite having played over 27 minutes per game, he couldn't fill in the vacant spot for Love and was ineffective in scoring at regular intervals as well on defense.

Nance had signed a four-year, $44.8 million contract extension with the Cavs back in October of 2018, and it looks like the franchise might be reconsidering shelling all that money out for unimpressive returns.
