Tyler Zeller shows why he could be ACC’s best

Posted Feb 29, 2012
The funny thing about Tyler Zeller’s performance in his final game at the Smith Center was that he actually didn’t have a great shooting night. Sure, he had 30 points, but he only made five of his 12 shots from the field. But when it comes to determining whether or not Zeller is the best player in the league, that fact deserves to be noted. On a day when his touch wasn’t quite there, he found a way to be effective. (Fayetteville Observer)
