2020-21 was an injury-riddled campaign for Cleveland Cavaliers big Larry Nance Jr., who first missed 13 games because of a fourth metacarpal fracture on his left hand. A bit before that, he missed a few games with a right wrist sprain, too.

Then, from late March until some into April, Nance had an extremely rough bout of illness, and ended up at one point losing up to nearly 20 pounds, leading to an eight-game absence. It took him some time understandably to gain his stamina back; the same went for him in adding on the weight back gradually it appeared, as one would assume.
