Tyler Zeller delivers knockout punch against No. 10 Wildcats

Posted Dec 5, 2010
North Carolina's Tyler Zeller entered Saturday's post-game interviews with two cuts on his face, though the 7-footer hardly seemed to notice. The wounds were the result of a career-day for Zeller who finished with 27 points, 11 rebounds and five blocks to help the Tar Heels hang on for a victory over the No. 10 Wildcats 75-73 at the Smith Center.
