Tyler Zeller shoots the ball well Monday
Tyler Zeller - C - Cleveland Cavaliers
Jan. 29, 2013 - 10:15 PM ET

Tyler Zeller shot 6-of-9 from the field and made all four of his free throws for 16 points, five boards and one block in 36 minutes.

He's been a bit of a disaster at shooting the ball from the field all year and Tuesday was the first game over his last 18 in which he shot over 50 percent. Conversely, Zeller has been terrific at the foul line since December 1, shooting 86.3 percent. He shot 81 percent in his last year at UNC, so that clip could be sustainable. Marreese Speights (12 points and five boards in 21 minutes) is going to eat into his playing time, but Zeller is still worth a look in standard leagues.
