Larry Nance Jr. Rumors

In many ways, Nance returning to Cleveland was quite possibly the league’s worst-kept secret. Even during his time in New Orleans, Atlanta and Portland — the places he went after a first Cleveland stint that lasted a little more than three years — Nance remained part of the Cavaliers’ family. He was involved in the team’s high-stakes fantasy football league. He kept strong relationships with various members of the organization, including Altman and general manager Mike Gansey. He proudly watched the All-Star-level growth of old teammate Darius Garland. He cheered on his brother, Pete. Spent summers here. Stayed embedded in the community.

“Over the past few years, when playing for the Hawks, playing for the Pelicans, yeah, I want them to win every game, but I was a Cavs fan,” Nance said. “So, watching the playoffs the past few years, it was hard not to just sit on the couch and kind of look, tap my wife and be like, ‘I can help, I could really do that.’ I’ve been ready. They just won 64 games. They’re fine. I don’t have to worry about them. I need to worry about me and making myself integrate with them.”

Among the crowd at the Peacock that day, and easy to spot in his Leeds shirt and yellow bucket hat, was NBA power forward Larry Nance Jr. The 6-foot 8-inch, 10-year NBA veteran became a minority stakeholder of Leeds United in 2023, buying in through Leeds owner 49ers Enterprises. Since then, he has traveled to West Yorkshire whenever possible to take in the fervent atmosphere that is synonymous with the club. “When everybody started getting off work it just filled up to the brim,” Nance told The Athletic. “It was nothing but Leeds fans in there singing and drinking and just having a great time.”

One advantage of being an investor in Leeds is the access. Nance receives match tickets when he requests them, something that is considered a treasure within the Leeds community. “We have 25,000 people on the season ticket waitlist,” Nance said. “It’s a nightmare. So yes, you get in.” Nance is also given some behind-the-scenes information about footballing decisions. “I know about all the stuff that’s potentially going on and (what players) we’re looking at. I get to know all that,” he added. “Some of the things are just obvious to me, but I guess I’ve never had to explain what actually comes with it.”
