Tyler Zeller considered 'safe' first-round pick
Posted May 22, 2012
Tyler Zeller might never be a star in the NBA. But after spending four years at UNC honing his skills, the 7-foot, 250-pound center appears to the type of player who could be productive. At 22, Zeller has more experience and maturity than many of the players expected to go high in the first round of this year's NBA Draft. But at the same time, he might not have as much room for development.
