NBA News Roundup, Friday, 26th July: L.A. Clippers could sign former Golden State star, Tacko Fall signs with the Boston Celtics and more

Tacko Fall to join the Boston Celtics

Tacko Fall will have a further chance to impress the Boston Celtics during the teams training camp

Tacko Fall was one of the most unique players to enter the 2019 NBA draft, although the 7 ft 7 inch center went undrafted. However, following an impressive summer league showing with the Boston Celtics, Fall has earned a contract for the 19-20 season.

Fall made five summer league appearances, averaging 7.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game. The 23-year-old’s huge frame led to him becoming the hottest ticket during the annual event, and Fall is believed to have also impressed a number of NBA scouts and executives.

Fall could still be waived at the end of Boston’s training camp, and the UCF graduate still has plenty of aspects of his game to improve. However, the Dakar native seems to be well on his way to forging a path within the NBA.
