33 | Zeller Family and the NBA | A Future Star for the Boston Celtics?

On the news ticker I saw the name Tyler Zeller because he was involved in a trade in the National Basketball Association.  He is 7'0" tall Center who previously played for the Cleveland Cavaliers, however after the trade, is a member of the Boston Celtics.  In other words, Mr. "33" went from one "33" to another.

• Zeller = 8+5+3+3+5+9 = 33
• Tyler = 2+7+3+5+9 = 26
• Cleveland = 3+3+5+4+5+3+1+5+4 = 33
• Massachusetts = 4+1+1+1+1+3+8+3+1+5+2+2+1 = 33

Tyler Zeller played college at University of North Carolina, where he wore the number 44.  In high school he averaged 33.1 points per game and his senior year, he set the state tournament scoring record with a performance of 47 points.  All by design?

Tyler Zeller was the 17th pick overall of the 2012 draft by the Dallas Mavericks.  He is the nephew of former NBA player Al Eberhard and the younger brother of former NBA players Luke and Cody Zeller.

• Al Eberhard = 1+3+5+2+5+9+8+1+9+4 = 47
• Luke = 3+3+11+5 = 22
• Luke Zeller = 22+33 = 55
• Cody = 3+15+4+25 = 47

It will be interesting to see what kind of player Tyler Zeller turns into.  I'm sure Celtic fans would love for him to be something like #33, Larry Bird.

• Larry = 12+1+18+18+25 = 74
• Bird = 2+9+18+4 = 33
• Larry wore #33
