Rumor: Extension deal for Tyler Zeller at 50/50

No, not 50 million for 50 years. That would be silly.

Not exactly breaking news here but worth reporting on a slow morning in late August I guess.

The Celtics and Zeller have talked about a deal and there is a belief if Zeller wants to lock in security, the C’s would be open to a deal. The problem is if Zeller wants to maximize his value he may have to take a trip through restricted free agency. There is a deal possible between Zeller and the Celtics; it’s about 50/50, according to sources close to the process.
