The Charlotte Hornets big man, known more for his steady and deliberate play than his high-flying athleticism, made Toronto Raptors forward Patrick Patterson pay for a halfhearted contest Friday night.
After taking a pocket pass and finding himself with all kinds of runway, Zeller drove to the hole, took off, plowed through Patterson mid-flight, and hammered home a vicious two-hander.
