The Tacko of the Town
Date: 2019-20 season
Signed by the Celtics after going undrafted in the 2019 NBA Draft, Tacko Fall drew national attention while playing collegiately for the University of Central Florida. At the NBA Draft Combine, Fall set NBA records for height at 7-foot-7 wearing shoes and wingspan at 8 feet, 2.25 inches. Fall averaged 3.3 points in seven games during his first season with the Celtics and became a huge fan favorite for his joyful antics in the 2020 NBA Playoffs bubble.
