As it turns out, however, both Larry Nance Jr. and Jarrett Allen could be returning to the lineup soon.</p><p>According to <a href="https://www.cleveland.com/cavs/2021/04/larry-nance-jr-jarrett-allen-return-to-basketball-activities-possible-both-play-wednesday-in-charlotte.html">Chris Fedor of cleveland.com</a>, Nance could come back some time next week after a troubling bout with an <a href="http://cavsnation.com/cavs-larry-nance-jr-lost-20-pounds-amid-concerning-illness/">undetermined illness</a> that led him to lose 20 pounds:</p><blockquote>Eager to return, Nance, who started turning the corner three days ago, was hoping to play this weekend, but the plan is a Wednesday comeback — if he’s physically ready. The Cavs want him to regain some of the lost weight and stamina first.</blockquote><p>Not too many details were revealed about Nance’s illness, but what we can say is that it was not COVID-19. Nevertheless, the fact that he lost a significant amount of weight in the span of two weeks is indeed concerning. Naturally, the team will want to take it slow on Nance and give him all the time he needs to get back in shape.</p><p>As for Allen, the new Cavs recruit suffered a concussion on March 26 and has since been unable to clear the league’s concussion protocols. He has made considerable progress, though, and should return sooner rather than later:</p><blockquote>Sources say Allen is progressing well through the league’s concussion protocol. He has reached the exertion part. By rule, a player has to be symptom free after each step. Sources say there’s a chance Allen returns Wednesday in Charlotte.</blockquote><p>This is all well and good, but it does not change Cleveland’s outlook for the season. The Cavs are well on their way to another lottery year, and not even the return of two key players is going to change that. Nonetheless, this is still some positive news.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Of course, Allen was eventually involved in the deal that landed the Nets star guard James Harden.</p><p>The widespread interest in Allen is not unexpected. He is averaging 13.7 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks in 29 games with the Cavs this season. Allen is one of the elite rim protectors in the game and a tremendous athlete for his size.</p><p>Cleveland did well to acquire the 22-year-old in the Harden deal, understanding Andre Drummond was on an expiring contract. Allen could well be a <a href="https://cavsnation.com/cavs-news-did-collin-sexton-just-throw-shade-kevin-love/">franchise cornerstone</a> alongside the likes of Collin Sexton and Darius Garland.</p><p>The Cavs need as many building blocks as possible going forward and have the cap space to keep Allen in Cleveland. It seems unlikely the Cavs will not match all offers for Allen, even if they get quite lucrative.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He did almost come close to turning the highlight around to his favor, falling perhaps just an inch short to sending the ball back to Joel Embiid’s face.</p><p>Nevertheless, at the end of the day, Allen had the last laugh, with the Cavs coming out on top over the Sixers.

Embiid carried majority of the load for Philadelphia with a monster 42-point outing, to go along with 13 rebounds, six assists and two blocks. Meanwhile, the Cavaliers were led by their backcourt tandem of Collin Sexton and Darius Garland, who scored 28 points and 25 points, respectively. Allen notched a double-double with 14 points and 10 rebounds.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

In a losing effort, Allen put on a show for the Cavs with a historic performance of 26 points and 17 rebounds, all without missing a shot after going 11-for-11.</p><p>Unfortunately, Allen and the Cavs fell short as the Oklahoma City Thunder stole an away win, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/scores/nba/boxscore/oklahoma-city-thunder-cleveland-cavaliers-2-22-2021/286e7e0a-fb1e-4609-90f1-c99ad1a785f8" rel="noopener">117-101</a>.</p><p>Despite the loss, Allen’s impressive evening still put him in the history books as just the eighth player in NBA history to have 25-plus points and 15-plus boards while shooting 100 percent from the field.

When he came to Cleveland, he had to wiggle his way to the lineup behind Andre Drummond, but now that the team has opted to <a href="https://cavsnation.com/cavs-rumors-andre-drummond-drawing-interest-from-8-10-teams-on-trade-market/" rel="noopener">shut down their primary big guy</a> amid trade talks, all eyes are now on Jarrett Allen.</p><p>Hopefully, big games like this continue to boost his confidence as he tries to help the Cavs slowly go back to playoff contention.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

Bickerstaff dismissed the team from practice:</p><blockquote>“After J.B. said, ‘Bring it in,’ I rushed to the locker room to shower to get home to turn it on to watch every second of it,” Jarrett Allen said, via Ridenour.</blockquote><p>This is not the first time Allen has embraced his scientific side. He spoke last month about how he once built his own computer from scratch, and he said the love for technology has familial roots:</p><blockquote>“My family has been into tech my whole life and then one day I was like, ‘OK, I’m going to take this computer apart and then learn about it,’” Jarrett Allen said on Jan. 18, via Ridenour. “Then I ended up building my own, ordering parts and putting it together.”</blockquote><p>The Cavs are probably hoping Allen can progress at an explosive rate in Cleveland, much like that of a space launch.</p><p>Jarrett Allen is averaging 13.2 points, 7.9 rebounds and 1.7 blocks in his first 16 games with the Cavs, who guaranteed he would be a franchise centerpiece by <a href="http://cavsnation.com/cavs-news-andre-drummond-will-not-play-until-traded/">openly stating their intentions to trade</a> Andre Drummond.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
