The Milwaukee Bucks intend to sign forward/center Pete Nance to a two-way contract, per NBA insider Shams Charania of ESPN.

Nance has served two stints with the Philadelphia 76ers this season after starting the year with the Cleveland Cavaliers in training camp.

The Sixers waived him back on Feb. 7, sending him back to the G League. He has played well for both the Cleveland Charge, appearing in a handful of games with the Delaware Blue Coats this season as well.

The son of Cavs legend Larry Nance and brother of Atlanta Hawks forward/center Larry Nance Jr., Pete Nance appeared in seven games this season, averaging 2.1 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 0.4 assists per game, shooting 33.3 percent from the floor.

Nance first joined the Sixers on a two-way deal on December 3, then was waived a little more than a month later.

The 6-foot-9 forward has been turning heads in the G League this season, averaging 16.7 points on 50 percent shooting, along with 6.9 rebounds, 3.2 assists, and 1.6 blocks over 14 games split between the Charge and the Blue Coats.

Larry Sr. played for the Cavs from 1987-94, with Larry Jr.’s run in Cleveland taking place from 2018-21.
