Fan favorite Boston Celtics big man Alum Tacko Fall is headed overseas for the next stage of his basketball career per new reporting from The Athletic’s Shams Charania. The Senegalese center is planning to sign with the Xinjiang Guanghui Flying Tigers of the Chinese Basketball Association, based in Urumqi, Xinjiang, China.
Per Charania, the three-year NBA vet will join the Flying Tigers after starting his career as a pro with the Celtics after going unselected in the 2019 NBA draft out of the University of Central Florida, and last playing for the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2021-22 season.
The 7-foot-6 big man spent most of his time honing his game at the G League level with the Maine Celtics and Canton Charge but has grown a considerable fanbase at every step of his basketball career due to his gregarious nature.
