The Charlotte Hornets are in a tough spot when it comes to Cody Zeller. When he’s on the floor, he makes the team better. He’s not physically imposing and he doesn’t put up big numbers, but he’s the quintessential team player. He sets good screens, he positions himself well defensively, and he’s unselfish, almost to a fault. He’s not without his warts, but he could easily be a middle of the road starting center. The problem: he can’t stay on the court.
When Cody Zeller plays, he’s good, especially compared to the Hornets other options.
