Tyler Zeller could be back by Saturday

Posted Feb 16, 2010
Finally, there appears to be some good news on the injury front for the hobbling UNC basketball team. Coach Roy Williams confirmed Monday that 7-foot sophomore center Tyler Zeller has been cleared to return to full practice. Although that means his eagerly awaited return to the lineup will happen sooner rather than later, Zeller probably won’t be back in time to help the Tar Heels in Atlanta on Tuesday in their critical game against Georgia Tech.
