The Cleveland Cavaliers approach the NBA trade deadline with a focus on enhancing their roster, particularly in the area of big man depth. With Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley as their primary centers, the Cavs are exploring ways to add a versatile forward to strengthen their lineup.

One name that has surfaced is Larry Nance Jr., currently with the Atlanta Hawks. Nance, who has a history with the Cavaliers, has been mentioned as a potential trade target. However, his recent hand surgery puts his availability in question, making it unlikely for him to contribute immediately. Despite this, his playoff experience and ability to defend multiple positions make him an intriguing option for Cleveland.
