After waiving Pete Nance last week, the Sixers announced (via Twitter) that they have re-signed him to a two-way contract.
The 24-year-old power forward originally joined the team on a two-way deal on December 3. Philadelphia saved a little bit of money by parting with Nance for a week, but his new contract – which doesn’t count against the cap – will be guaranteed for the rest of the season.
Nance appeared in one game with the Sixers, playing three minutes December 30 at Portland. He also saw action in 14 G League contests with the Cleveland Charge and Delaware Blue Coats, averaging 16.7 points, 6.9 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.6 blocked shots while shooting 50% from the field.
Nance, the younger brother of Hawks big man Larry Nance Jr., appeared in eight games last year on a two-way contract with Cleveland. He was waived in October just before the season started and got the opportunity with Philadelphia a few weeks later.
The Sixers have all three of their two-way slots filled again, with Justin Edwards and Jeff Dowtin holding the other two. Golden State and Orlando are the only remaining teams with openings, as our two-way contract tracker shows.
I’m sure Jim nance is a proud papa
Why bother? He’s no good.
Yeah, you said that last time too.
Pete Nance has an actual hater. Who knew?
Meh. It’s more that I believe there are better choices, but sure.
