Rotowire
Nance is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Magic due to an illness.

Nance chipped in no counting stats across four minutes during Monday's 115-101 victory over the 76ers.
Nance played for just the second time in the past nine games, continuing what has been an uneventful season. Despite his fantasy-friendly game, Nance simply hasn't been a factor on most nights, averaging 3.2 points and 2.5 rebounds in 12.4 minutes per game, seeing the floor on just 28 occasions.

Rotowire
Nance closed with five points (2-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 13 minutes during Wednesday's 94-87 win over Charlotte.
Nance moved back into the rotation, appearing for just the second time in the past 25 games. After starting the season with a relatively consistent role off the bench, injuries and lack of production have resulted in him being used only on rare occasions. Despite a proven per-minute upside, Nance holds no real value in fantasy leagues, given his lack of playing time.
