Can confirm the Pels are signing Larry Nance Jr. to a two-year, $21.6 million extension. No player or team options in the deal, per a source.
CJ McCollum got his wish. – 12:34 PM

#Pelicans roster is bursting with young talent, but also boasts several experienced veterans.

The majority of the players on the Pels roster had never played 5-on-5 with Zion until Tuesday’s scrimmage.
Willie Green said he “dominated.”
“I would say ‘dominated’ is a good word,” Larry Nance Jr. said.

How great is Larry Nance Jr.?
When we walked into practice, he was rebounding for Jaxson Hayes. (Super rare to see an NBA player exclusively rebound for another.)
Then after Jose Alvarado had finished his media duty, Nance broke out into a Jose chant that included some dancing. – 2:10 PM

The Pelicans star hasn’t played in a game since May 2021 — more than 500 days ago — but looked lean, fast and like a “wrecking ball,” according to forward Larry Nance in New Orleans’ team scrimmage Tuesday night. “He looks like Z,” Nance told reporters. “Dude hasn’t played basketball for 500-something days. It’s not like none of us are expecting that right away but shoot, I got to be honest with you, dude looks good. It’s going to take time for everybody to adjust to him. It’s going to take him time to adjust to everybody, but it’s hard not to be impressed.” -via New York Post / September 29, 2022
Andrew Lopez: Larry Nance on his advice to Zion Williamson: “You don’t put cheap gas in a Lambo.” Says he’s a 1 of 1 athlete and he has to treat his body as such. Added that he’s seen Zion make that commitment this offseason. -via Twitter @_Andrew_Lopez / September 26, 2022
