Larry Nance Jr. continues to show how well-rounded his game is.

The Cavs constructed a team of specialists around LeBron James the last four years. Every player was on the roster because they were elite in one or more areas, but didn’t necessarily have the best all-around game. That kind of roster works great with LeBron, but it falls apart when he’s gone.

Nance doesn’t fall into that category and his all-around game is a stark contrast from the rest of the Cavs. Nance has been the team’s best facilitator and best rebounder for extended stretches this year. That trend continued on Saturday as he led the team in rebounds and assists.

Nance has improved his game each year and has turned into a guy who can do a little bit of everything on the floor.

The Cavs will look to pick up their first rwin of the season when Trae Young and the Atlanta Hawks come back to the Q Tuesday night. In the meantime, it may be best for your sanity if you watch some R.J. Barrett and Zion Williamson highlights.
