I for one was shocked when Cody Zeller was the fourth pick of the NBA draft to the Charlotte Bobcats; welcome to basketball hell Zeller.
Cody Zeller has been drafted by the Charlotte Bobcats. Thoughts and prayers to and him and his family.

The Bobcats will most likely be one of the bottom five teams in the league for the foreseeable future. The one bright side for Zeller? Playing time. It will be aplenty down in Charlotte, because they need anyone who even knows how to tie their own sneakers. I enjoyed watching Cody’ brother Tyler Zeller throughout college and they say that Cody is a more athletic version of Tyler so Bobcats’ fans have something to be excited for. The youngest Zeller brother will have high expectations from the Bobcats right away because of the players he was drafted ahead of; you even have to wonder if the Bobcats could have traded down in the draft and still gotten their man, but who knows.
He might even be able to put up big enough numbers next year to be in rookie of the year consideration, but I think Ben McLemore or Victor Oladipo might have the fast track on that, but we will keep you posted here at Rant Sports.
