UNC-Kentucky Observations | Scott Fowler
Posted Nov 19, 2008
Seven-foot freshman Tyler Zeller had a rough night. He ended it by landing on his left wrist late in the game while getting fouled hard – coach Roy Williams said it wasn't a dirty foul – while trying to dunk. Zeller was obviously hurt on the play, although it wasn't clear how badly immediately after the game. Zeller started in place of Tyler Hansbrough at center and struggled. He took an ill-advised 3-pointer once and ended up 1-for-6 for two points, with two rebounds and three fouls.
