gold star for USAHOF

10. Cody Zeller

10. Cody Zeller
Nicknamed "Big Handsome", Cody Zeller completed his first eight seasons with Charlotte, before signing with Portland as a Free Agent in 2021.

While Zeller will never be confused for a flashy player, he has proven to be certainly capable and is often praised for his unselfishness and dedication to team play.  A cerebral player, Zeller rarely makes mistakes and his likability often hides the fact that maybe he hasn't reached the level that should be expected of a fourth overall pick, though he did rove himself as an asset, posting three double-digit years in Points.

He played 467 Games with Charlotte.
