Lakers' Larry Nance: Near double-double off bench to close out preseason

Nance managed 10 points (4-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and nine rebounds across 19 minutes in Friday's 98-94 preseason loss to the Suns.

Analysis:

Nance managed a highly productive outing in a modest amount of playing time for the second straight game. The second-year forward shot 47.4 percent (9-for-19) over the last pair of contests while averaging 10.0 points per game and looks set to receive at least the 20.1 minutes he averaged in his rookie season while backing up Julius Randle in the coming campaign.
