Cody Zeller is a 21-year-old NBA player and millionaire, but that doesn't mean he's not still subject to his mom's rules during the offseason.

On Friday, Zeller revealed that his mom makes him do summer art projects, and that he's been working on a good one in his downtime. And so, he presents Char Wars, a graphic of the Charlotte Hornets as Star Wars characters:

In case you can't make it out, here's who Zeller has photoshopped:

  • Himself as Cody Wan Kenobi
  • Michael Kidd-Gilchrist as an MKG Wok
  • P.J. Hairston as PJ-D2
  • Lance Stephenson as Ste-3PO
  • Al Jefferson as ChewbaccAl
  • Kemba Walker as Juke Skywalker (niiiiice)
  • Gerald Henderson as Hen Solo
  • Noah Vonleh as Noah Von Leia
  • Bismack Biyombo as Yombo
  • Jannero Pargo as Pargo Fett

We see you, Cody Zeller. That's some A-plus work.

No word on what Mrs. Zeller had Cody's brothers, Tyler (of the Boston Celtics) and Luke (who spent last season in the D-League), do for their summer projects.
