In 24 games, Nance averaged 8.5 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.6 assists. He also provided the Hawks with key spacing, knocking down 44.7% of his 3-point attempts.
But Nance played a key role for the Hawks in their locker room. He gave them a valued veteran voice who provided coaching from a player’s perspective, as well as advocate for his teammates.
Nance joins Clint Capela and Caris LeVert, who signed with the Rockets and Pistons, respectively, among the veteran Hawks leaving in free agency.
