Nance contributed 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 117-116 win over the Celtics. Nance tallied a season-high 19 points in the win, demonstrating what he can do when afforded significant playing time. While this was certainly an encouraging performance, it should be noted that he had played fewer than 15 minutes in six of the previous seven games. He is someone to monitor should he step into a consistent role but for now, this is possibly an outlier.

Nance contributed 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-6 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 27 minutes during Tuesday's 117-116 win over the Celtics. Nance tallied a season-high 19 points in the win, demonstrating what he can do when afforded significant playing time. While this was certainly an encouraging performance, it should be noted that he had played fewer than 15 minutes in six of the previous seven games. He is someone to monitor should he step into a consistent role but for now, this is possibly an outlier.
Nance supplied 14 points (6-8 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds and one steal across 25 minutes during Sunday's 126-111 victory over the Pelicans. Despite moving back to the bench, Nance supplied a versatile fantasy line in limited action. However, with Onyeka Okongwu (toe/rest) expected back Monday, Nance isn't guaranteed to see much action against the Celtics.
Nance won't start Sunday's game against the Pelicans, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. With Dyson Daniels back in action, Nance will shift to his usual reserve role. In two appearances off the bench this season, Nance has averaged 8.5 points, 2.0 assists, 1.5 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 15.0 minutes, but the majority of that production came in one game.
Nance will start Friday's game against the Kings, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Nance will make his first start of the season and will be joined by Trae Young, Zaccharie Risacher, Jalen Johnson and Clint Capela. Nance played 23 minutes against the Wizards on Monday, posting 15 points (6-9 FG), three rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals.
Nance accumulated 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), three rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 23 minutes during Monday's 121-119 loss to the Wizards. Onyeka Okongwu (toe) didn't play, and the Hawks were shorthanded elsewhere as well. Nance has a history of being productive in category leagues when the minutes are there, and Monday night was no different. He wasn't in the rotation in the opening three games of the season, but he did make a case to the coaching staff that he'll be ready when his name is called.
Nance (rest) isn't listed on the injury report for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Nets, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Nance rested during the Hawks' preseason finale but is cleared to play during the regular season. The veteran will be a key depth piece for Atlanta's frontcourt this season after being traded to the Hawks in the deal that sent Dejounte Murray (personal) to New Orleans.
Nance (rest) won't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Thunder, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. The Hawks are resting several players for the preseason finale, and Nance is among several frontcourt players who won't see action here. The veteran is expected to open the 2024-25 season as Jalen Johnson's backup at the power forward position.
The Pelicans traded Nance, Dyson Daniels and two first-round picks to the Hawks in exchange for Dejounte Murray on Friday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports. Nance averaged 5.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 19.9 minutes across 61 bench appearances for the Pelicans in 2023-24. His role in Atlanta is unclear, as Clint Capela and Onyeka Okongwu will likely both feature ahead of him in the frontcourt rotation. Regardless, Nance has displayed versatility on the defensive end as well as an improved outside shot, converting 41.5 percent of 1.1 three-point attempts per contest last season.
Nance (ankle) isn't on the injury report for Saturday's Game 3 against the Thunder. Nance was held to just 14 minutes of action in Game 2 due to an apparent right ankle injury. However, Nance should be available and serve as one of New Orleans' primary frontcourt options off the bench in Game 3.
