WATCH: Tacko Fall asserts his physicality in the G League and NBA

It’s hard to believe, but we can now say the phrase “NBA and G League veteran Tacko Fall” in a sentence and not be spouting nonsense.

The University of Central Florida product successfully completed his first season as a two way player splitting his time between the Maine Red Claws and the Boston Celtics in 2019-20, the parent club of his primary assignment for last season.

At the NBA level, Fall put up 3.3 points, 2.1 rebounds and 0.6 blocks per game over just 4.7 minutes of game time, and with the ‘Claws, he scored an impressive 12.9 points, 11.3 boards and 3.1 blocks per contest in just over 23 minutes of floor time with Maine.

If you miss the fan favorite big man, or just need to catch a glimpse of Celtics basketball while we wait out the offseason, watch the video embedded above.

It’s got a pair of plays from Fall at each level, flashing the potential we all see in the studious young big man.
