Boston Celtics two-way rookie center Tacko Fall recorded his eighth double-double of the season on Tuesday night with the Maine Red Claws in the G League.
The 7-foot-5 center finished with 11 points, 10 rebounds and three blocked shots during the 138-126 win over the Erie BayHawks. Fall shot 5-of-7 from the field in 25 minutes off of the bench.
Fall recently returned to the G League after a brief stint with the Celtics in the NBA. The undrafted product from UCF tallied 14 points, nine rebounds and five blocks on Saturday night against the Grand Rapids Drive.
Fall once again had his way against the smaller competition and was a force down low near the basket. One on possession, Fall emerged from a crowd of defenders with the offensive rebound and putback dunk.

Though Fall has spent the majority of the season in the G League, he is among the frontcourt leaders in NBA All-Star voting after just four appearances with the Celtics.
After his performance on Tuesday, Fall is now averaging 13.6 points, 10.2 rebounds and three blocks in 14 games played. Fall is third in the G League in blocks and ninth in rebounds among all players.
