Larry Nance Sr. had absolutely huge hands. I have not looked for measurements and there hasn't been a very close shot of them, but the ease with which he gathers in a ball seems to indicate that he has very good hands if not also huge. Watching Larry Sr. and Brad Daugherty and the rest of that Cavs team play in the late 80s was a treat. They scared all the EC teams in the playoffs.
Yes, Jr. palms the ball on all of his dunks. Huge advantge
Along with the other huge advantage of the insane 12' 1.5" max vert reach (highest at the combine) ... And you have some pretty looking throwdowns on people.
DB, I read somewhere that his max vert reach was the highest since 2009. _________________ A key that has the ability to unlock many locks is a master key. But a lock that can be opened with any key is useless.

Would like to believe that JR is just worn out and that's the reason his shot looks so pedestrian. A consistent outside shot is key for him to maximize his strengths. _________________ We back.

He got no lift on those catch n shoots. Zero. He was just tired IMO.

Yeah I think that's the reason why his shot looks off compared to how it looked a couple of months ago in his other shooting highlights. Probably just trying to condition him to shooting when he's tired and doesn't have the energy anymore.
randle may or may not become an allstar, but I don't think he we will Nearly as good as people think. Best to trade him off along with Clarkson for Damarcus, if we can unload young.
Can you also tell me the lotto number for this week's drawing?

Wouldn't surprise me. That's a pretty insane number. You want your picks to have at least one freakish ability or strength to fall back on. His is that athleticism. He's also seem to shown work ethic (injury bounce back) and has a hoop pedigree (help with IQ). Hopefully, all that comes together over the next few years.

I think that criticizing a video with absolutely 0 perspective is worthless. You can make up any scenario you want (and most here have) despite having no idea about the workout. _________________ RIP mom. 11-21-1933 to 6-14-2023.

Really expecting big things from this kid. Also VERY glad we got Brandon Bass to mentor this kid. Excellent. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals

Really love the Bass pickup now. Could not have asked for a better mentor for Randle. Hard worker, plays with heart, solid mid range shot he can teach Randle, etc.
The last thing I wanted for our young guys to believe they were entitled to a starting position. Now they have to beat out seasoned vets. Everyone will be the better for that. _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals
