Being 7-foot-5 is pretty awesome, but even that has its drawbacks.
In fact, for Tacko Fall, his height is hazardous to his health.
According to Mass Live, Fall entered the NBA’s concussion protocol after banging his head. But it wasn’t from an errant elbow during practice.
“Fall explained to MassLive that he was trying to wash his hands after a workout at the practice facility but didn’t notice a ‘low ceiling,'” the site reported. “Fall hit his head, but initially thought nothing of it.”
Eventually he woke up the next morning and didn’t feel good. This just means the Auerbach Center might need some infrastructure changes to accommodate their really big big man.
This also apparently isn’t the first time Fall has been potentially concussed by a piece of a building:
Get well soon and I hope for higher ceilings everywhere you go.
