Tyler Zeller's vertical, blocks have grown a leap
Posted Feb 23, 2012
North Carolina 7-footer Tyler Zeller isn’t going to set any block records like teammate John Henson, who needs 39 more swats to tie Brendan Haywood for the UNC career mark. But the senior has shown improvement in that area, by leaps and bounds. Entering Saturday’s game at Virginia, Zeller has posted 40 blocks this season, good for eighth in the league at 1.4 per game.
