Boston Celtics two way players Tacko Fall and and Tremont Waters were hardly on the radar of most Celtics fans a year ago, but after each left their mark in a big way on the Maine Red Claws in the 2019-20 G League season, it’s safe to say they won’t be forgetting their names any time soon, either.
Connecticut native Waters was honored with this season’s G League Rookie of the Year honors for his work with Boston’s Portland-based developmental franchise, for whom he averaged 18 points, 3.2 rebounds, 7.3 assists and 2 steals per game while shooting 7.8 treys per contest at a 35.4% success rate.
And while Fall didn’t take home any hardware, it’s hard to ignore the impact he’s had on the court with Maine. He averaged 12.9 points, 11.3 rebounds and 3.1 blocks per game with the Red Claws, his fame seemingly growing with every rebound, dunk or rejection.
Watch the video embedded above to see their best plays with Maine this season while we wait for the season to restart at the NBA campus of Disney’s Wide World of Sports complex in late July.
And whatever else you do in the meantime, don’t go chasing Waters/Fall.
