There’s no denying what Larry Nance Jr meant to Wyoming basketball and its fans. Now his professional career has taken him home.

The former Cowboy was traded from the Los Angeles Lakers to his hometown Cleveland Cavaliers on February 8, 2018. He helped the Cavs reach the NBA Finals.

Recently, Woodward Original chronicled Nance’s unbelievable journey.

It’s safe to say there were a lot more Lakers fans in the Cowboy State than there used to be, but that base shifted east after the trade. In the end, for Larry Nance Jr. and Poke Nation, “Once a Cowboy, Always a Cowboy.”
