With teams preparing to resume the 2019-20 season, players have started returning to practice facilities around the NBA in an effort to get back into game shape.
All 30 training facilities in the league have opened up, with varying limitations, in recent weeks as stay-at-home orders have eased around the country. In accordance with safety protocols and health guidelines, a limited number of players can be on the court or in weight rooms.
On Thursday, Boston Celtics rookie Tacko Fall hit the gym for some work.
Celtics general manager Danny Ainge captured a small video clip of the 7-foot-5 center practicing his corner 3-pointers as part of his workout. Fall may have taken an extra step or two prior to hitting the shot, though.

Fall has been seen previously practicing his 3-pointers during practice as he continues to work on his game. His shot form has improved drastically from his time in college at UCF after working with noted specialist Drew Hanlen. He has yet to break out the jump shot during a game but he appears to be slowly adding to his bag of tricks.
As for the rest of his season, teams are petitioning the NBA to allow players signed to two-way contracts, like Fall and fellow rookie Tremont Waters, the ability to play once the season resumes on July 31 at the Walt Disney World Resort.
