Tacko Fall had a monster double-double with 14 points, 18 rebounds

The 7-foot-5 center tied a career-high in rebounds Thursday night on assignment in the G League.

Boston Celtics rookie Tacko Fall recorded 14 points and 18 rebounds on assignment Thursday night with the Maine Red Claws in the G League during a win over the College Park Skyhawks.

Fall tallied his 13th double-double of the season in the 119-100 victory during his first game back after appearing in the NBA Slam Dunk Contest at All-Star Weekend. The 7-foot-5 center also blocked five shots and went 7-of-14 from the field.

Fall has now recorded 18 rebounds three different times this season with the Red Claws. He first accomplished the feat on Nov. 25 against the Memphis Hustle as he hauled in 14 offensive rebounds alone, which set the Red Claws franchise record for most in a game.

Fall also tallied 18 rebounds against the Skyhawks on Dec. 29 as he has proven to be dominant against them this season. He has often used his size and strength to overpower the opposition this season and that was once again on display on Thursday.

After his performance on Thursday, Fall is now averaging 13 points, 10.9 rebounds and 2.7 blocks in 23 games played. He is fourth in the G League in blocks and ninth in rebounds.
