5 years agoCleveland Cavaliers power forward/center Larry Nance Jr. has been tagged as doubtful for Sunday’s contest against the Philadelphia 76ers due to a sprained left thumb. Nance has been a vital bench cog for Cleveland early in the season and his absence would likely force starters Kevin Love and Tristan Thompson into slightly larger roles. Any kind of extended absence would severely cap Nance’s fantasy relevance, as he remains an option likely only in deeper leagues due to his role as a reserve. It sounds as if his next best chance to return to action will come Monday versus the Knicks.--Jesse Borek
