Fall went undrafted in the 2019 NBA draft, but later signed with the Boston Celtics. Fall is the tallest current NBA/G League player, is the tallest player in G League history, and is one of the tallest living humans.
Yes, Tacko Fall. He might be the nicest big man I have ever seen. And he makes everyone on the court look, well, comical. Tacko's played in only 3 games and is averaging 4.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 0.7 blocks in 3.7 minutes per game.
Pearson's father is 6'10", but Fall's mother and father are 5'8" and 6'0", respectively.
College basketball player Tacko Fall—who will begin playing at the University of Central Florida this fall—is tall. So tall that he can touch a ten-foot rim without even jumping. So when we heard that he posted a clip of himself pulling off a between-the-legs dunk, we thought, "Meh." He's 7-foot-6.
Elhadji Tacko Sereigne Diop Fall (born December 10, 1995) is a Senegalese professional basketball player for the Boston Celtics of the National Basketball Association (NBA), on a two-way contract with the Maine Red Claws of the NBA G League. Fall was born and raised in Dakar, Senegal.
With Kyrie Irving now out until next season, the Celtics have signed guard Jonathan Gibson, according to Yahoo Sports' Shams Charania.
During college, Tacko averaged 10.1 points, 7.7 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game over four years, solid numbers overall. These numbers lend themselves to the notion that maybe Fall can improve into a player capable of cracking an NBA rotation, either in Boston or elsewhere in the future.
How did tacko fall get so tall?
Celtics are converting 7-foot-6 rookie Tacko Fall to a two-way contract, league sources tell ESPN.

The minimum salary for players in the NBA amounted to just over 582 thousand U.S. dollars in the 2019 season.
