Boston Celtics fan favorite two way player Tacko Fall is evidently working on an outside game.
At shootaround with the Maine Red Claws Friday evening, the Senegalese center was seen hoisting up treys.
In New York to take on the Long Island Nets — the G League affiliate of the eponymous Brooklyn team — the 7-foot-5 big man was recorded by Nets Daily’s Chris Mulhollen hoisting up 3-pointers.
While it’s clear it won’t be part of his on-court game anytime soon due to the glacial release and overall inaccuracy in the short clip we have, it’s got promise.

Given time, Fall could perhaps add the shot to his near-basket offensive arsenal — a move which would add to his value as a trailing big considerably.
Until then, we’ll just have to appreciate the charismatic center for shot-blocking, rebounding machine that he is.
