6 photos of Tacko Fall towering over NBA players

Tacko Fall — the Summer League sensation for the Boston Celtics — is tall.

The former UCF center measures in at 7-foot-6 and it has everyone buzzing every time he plays, especially because he’s playing well for the Celts’ summer squad. But that’s partially because Fall is a giant and looks even more gargantuan when you see him in the context of other NBA players.

And that should help give an idea of just how tall he really is. For example, here’s this really awesome shot that’s going viral of Fall next to Carson Edwards, who stands at just 6-foot-1:

He’s barely jumping in these two, so you can see what he looks like all stretched out:

He’s not jumping at all and yet he’s right at the hoop!

Here he is sitting next to his teammates:
