Dude is huge. If you hate Lonzos FT% wait till you see this guy...

He may land somewhere in the 2nd, May go undrafted and we can invite him to summer camp.

I am sorry but wasting a draft pick, especially a #4 on this guy would be FO suicide.

No one needs a 7'-6" guy who will last maybe a year or two in the NBA before his legs give out.

Would be stupid...beyond stupid. Good luck whoever drafts this kid.

Tacko Fall shatters records at NBA draft combine, while Bol Bol among big disappointments

Winners
Tacko Fall. The UCF big man was in the national spotlight when his team nearly upset Duke in the NCAA tournament’s second round. And now he’s making a case for an NBA future by shot blocking and playing solid pick-and-roll defense in front of scouts. After a strong showing in the G League Elite Camp earned Fall a spot at the combine, the Senegal product measured at 7-foot-7 in shoes with an 8-foot-2¼ wingspan and a 10-foot-2½ standing reach — shattering all the previous measurement records. Those measurements factored with a better-than-expected scrimmage performance should thrust Fall onto most mock draft boards.

I do not know how effective Tacko will be in the NBA...but I think he would be a great guy to have at the end of your bench at a minimum.

I can see a team taking him in the NBA and using him just for certain plays. Yeah, he probably wouldn't be playing much minutes but he would be there for certain situations.

Sure that’s why he gave duke fits...they almost upset duke. Also at the combine opposing centers having bad days going up against him...I wonder why?

Give me taco fall and boil boil and lonzo and ...good luck opposing teams.

Moreover that article saying put him in special plays ...should go look at actual games his team was in...his coach let him play not just situation plays sooo I’m just saying. Also shaq sucked at ft not saying he shaq but opposing teams going to feel his impact on the defensive end and rebounding and blocks to altered shots
