Tacko Fall wasn't selected in either round of the 2019 NBA Draft, although the 7ft 7in center has impressed during the Summer League. Due to this, many have speculated that Fall could still have a future in the NBA, and General Manager Danny Ainge told WEEI that the Boston Celtics will consider adding Fall to their roster for the upcoming campaign:
