Nance is not on the injury report. He'd been Day-to-Day with a hamstring and leg issue as of September 29, then was cleared on October 11. Since then his minutes have been modest: 8.4 against Milwaukee, 12.9 against Oklahoma City, 11.6 against Atlanta, and zero against Minnesota. His scoring in those four games was light too, four, five, and six points, with no more than five rebounds or three assists in any of them. At 33 and in his 11th season, Indiana is clearly managing his workload early.

Last season Nance played 35 games for Cleveland, averaging 3.7 points, 2.7 rebounds and 1.0 assist in 12.8 minutes a night. He shot 41.9 percent from the field, 33.3 percent from three and 46.2 percent from the line, good for a 50.5 true shooting mark, with a usage rate of 13.7 and a minus-0.5 plus-minus. Now 33 and in his 11th season out of Wyoming, the 6-8, 245-pound forward-center wears number 22 for Indiana, cast in the same low-usage reserve role he's filled for years.
