By the numbers – ranking Boston’s players by jersey: No. 99

Who are the best Boston Celtics to wear each jersey number? As we wait for the 2019-20 NBA season to resume, the Celtics Wire investigates.

Tacko Fall – 2019-?

While the Senegalese center’s story is still being written, he’s behind one other player to wear his current jersey number.

Undrafted out of UCF in 2019, he was signed by the Celtics as a two way player, and Tacko Mania was born in Boston almost overnight.

While he hasn’t gotten much run with the parent club, he’s been dominant in the G League with the Maine Red Claws, and has put up some fairly solid outings with the Celtics when he’s been given the chance.

In his sole season in the Association so far, the former Knight has logged 3.2 points, 1.8 rebounds and 0.3 blocks per contest, good enough for second-best to don the No. 99.
