The Milwaukee Bucks announced Saturday that they have waived former UNC center Tyler Zeller, as they cut down the roster in anticipation of the beginning of the NBA regular season next week.
Zeller played in 24 games for the Bucks last year–averaging 5.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per game–after being traded over from the Brooklyn Nets in the middle of the season.
Drafted 17th overall by the Dallas Mavericks in the 2012 NBA Draft, and then later traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers on the same night, Zeller has played for a total of four teams in his six-year pro career.
His best season came in 2014-15 with the Boston Celtics, where he averaged 10.2 points and 5.7 rebounds while appearing in all 82 games.
