Celtics, 76ers, Heat among teams interested in Cavs' Larry Nance Jr.?

The NBA trade deadline is in less than three weeks, and several teams around the league are looking for upgrades in order to compete against the likes of the Los Angeles Lakers and Brooklyn Nets. 

According to Cleveland.com's Chris Fedor, several NBA teams are pursuing Cleveland Cavaliers power forward Larry Nance. Jr. 

"According to sources, Nance is the player the Cavs have received the most calls about. Sources say the Minnesota Timberwolves have been aggressively pursuing him since the offseason. Nance's old teammate and buddy D'Angelo Russell is a strong Nance advocate. Boston, Philadelphia, New Orleans, Miami and Dallas have also shown interest."

Fedor adds that Nance isn't expected to be traded before the deadline unless the Cavaliers get "completely blown away" by an offer. Cleveland reportedly received a package including "multiple late-first-round picks" for Nance. 

The 28-year-old has an $11.7 million cap hit this year and has two more years left on his deal, with cap hits of $10.7 million and $9.7 million, so any team acquiring him would need to be willing to take on his contract.

Nance is averaging 9.3 points, 6.8 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game while shooting 48.3% from the field and 38.1% from deep. He could be a solid addition to any contending team.
