Cody Zeller (knee) expected to play in Game 6 for Charlotte
Charlotte Hornets forward/center Cody Zeller (knee) is expected to play in Friday's Game 6 against the Miami Heat.
What It Means:
Zeller tweaked his right knee during Game 5, but it doesn't sound like he's dealing with anything serious. He should play around 20 minutes off the bench, which isn't enough floor time for him to put up a meaningful stat line.
Zeller posted a solid 5.8 nERD in the regular season, which ranked 29th, and averaged 8.7 points, 6.2 rebounds and 1.0 assists per game. His per-game averages have all dropped in the five games played against the Heat as Zeller is posting 8.2 points, 5.4 boards and 0.4 assists per game.
