This seems like an awful long time to be out with a sinus infection.  I've had a pretty bad sinus infection before and I pretty much felt like decapitating myself to make the pain go away, but with some antibiotics and rest, I was functional within a couple of days.  He's been out since December 30th with this thing.

Let's pray he is okay and this is just a precaution to ship him out in a Cousin deal.

zeller has a generous nose--but he was hospitalized and maybe he has balance issues -we were winning and why rush--

He's definitely not still out with sinus problems.

Yeah, at this point I think it's probably something more serious but the team doesn't want to go into any details. The team wouldn't be lying about an illness just to hold him out when they could just give him DNP - CDs, bit it's too long for a sinus infection, so it must be something else
I'm bitter.

I heard he's seeing a psychiatrist. He's afraid to play defense.

Hope he's able to overcome this head problem.

Psst. Would it surprise you to know that Zeller is in the 94% of the league in his defense in the post this season. Obviously, that's playing bench minutes and the sample size is small, but he's actually been pretty good.

Hope he's ok but he hasn't been missed on the floor.

Yikes.  That really stinks.  Equilibrium issues can make normal every tasks next to impossible.

Thanks for the link.  The only news I'd seen was during the pregame injury report as "illness".
Yup
