Grizzlies' Tyler Zeller: Excellent per minute production
Zeller finished with 13 points (4-7 FG, 5-6 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two blocks in 19 minutes during Tuesday's loss to Detroit.
Zeller managed to do his damage in just 19 minutes before fouling out. The 7th-year center's scored in double-digits in each of the last three games, making 13-of-22 shots from the field over that span. While he's been productive on a per-minute basis, Zeller's seen action in just five games this season and holds his current role on the Grizzlies primarily do to the myriad injuries of players ahead of him on the depth chart.

Grizzlies' Tyler Zeller: Scores 15 points in 26 minutes
Zeller provided 15 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, and one block in 26 minutes during Sunday's 129-127 overtime loss to the Mavericks.
Zeller has reached double figures in scoring in both of his first two bouts with the Grizzlies. With Jonas Valanciunas (ankle) and Jaren Jackson (thigh) already ruled out for the rest of the campaign and Joakim Noah (knee) currently hobbled as well, Zeller may continue to earn decent minutes across the final two games this season.

Hawks' Tyler Zeller: Agrees to 10-day with Hawks
Zeller has agreed to a 10-day contract with the Hawks, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Zeller is expected to sign the deal Friday, which means he could be available for the Hawks' game Saturday against one of his former teams in the Nets. Zeller spent last season as a member of both Brooklyn and Milwaukee, appearing in 66 games and averaging 6.7 points and 4.6 rebounds across 16.8 minutes. Atlanta is dealing with some injuries to its frontline, including Dewayne Dedmon (knee) and Omari Spellman (ankle), so Zeller could certainly see some minutes for the Hawks in the meantime.

Tyler Zeller: Waived by Bucks
Zeller was waived by the Bucks on Saturday, Matt Velazquez of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Zeller played a solid role for the Bucks last season, seeing 16.9 minutes per game and averaging 5.9 points and 4.6 rebounds. However, several frontcourt acquisitions, such as Brook Lopez and Ersan Ilyasova, meant Zeller's role would be minimized. There's a strong chance Zeller finds NBA work elsewhere as a depth option at center at some point in the season.
