The last time Tyler Zeller subbed into a game at TD Garden, he entered as a last-ditch effort for Brad Stevens to initiate consistent play against the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference Finals.

Through combinations of trades and departures in free agency 11 players, including Zeller, departed Boston over the summer.
