Larry Nance is a retired basketball player for the Phoenix Suns and Cleveland Cavaliers.
A 6 ft 10 in (2.08 m) power forward/center from Clemson University,
Nance played thirteen seasons (1981-1994) in the NBA.
Nance scored 15,687 career points and grabbed 7,352 career rebounds,
but he is perhaps best known as the first winner of the NBA Slam Dunk Contest in 1984,
earning him the nickname "The High-Ayatolla of Slamola".
Nance was a model of consistency throughout his NBA career.
He averaged over 16 points and 8 rebounds per game for all eleven seasons as a starter.
His best scoring average year was in the 1986-1987 NBA season, where he averaged 22.5 points per game.
Always among the highest in field goal percentage, Nance was an excellent mid-range shooter as well as a
talented inside player.
Larry Nance was a 3-time NBA All-Star 1985, 1989, and 1993, and the NBA All-Defensive Team First Team member in 1989,
and the Second Team Member in 1992 and 1993.
He was also consistently one of the league's better shot blockers, averaging 2.2 blocks per game during his career.
Upon his retirement, he held the league record for most blocked shots by any player other than a center.
