LeBron James has always been known as a good teammate and since Larry Nance Jr. has been traded over from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Cleveland Cavaliers, he has gushed about how much he enjoys playing with James and how much better he has become following his change of teams.
After the Cleveland Cavaliers took care of business against the Detroit Pistons, Nance Jr, had some extended comments about what LeBron does so great as a teammate.
“The game just felt easy and he (LeBron James) is a large part of it. Catching layups, those mid range jumpers, his gravity is ridiculous. He has the ball and the other teams defense is locked on him.
“There are still times I am learning to have my hands up. There have been a couple times today where I did not know I was open, but he did. A ball would come flying through the lane…okay I’m open I guess.
Both LeBron James and Larry Nance Jr., had a huge part to do with the win in this game, and they look really comfortable playing together.
James led the way putting up 31 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists. Nance Jr wasn’t far behind putting up 22 points and 15 rebounds.
One of the biggest keys for the rest of the season for this team is that these two continue to grow together. Nance Jr has shown the last few games just how good he can be, and if James continues to find him and get him open, this team could take another big step forward.
