We don’t do a lot of G-League injury updates here, but Tacko Fall is not your average G-League player.
The Celtics’ project big man has been with the Maine Red Claws, but is going to miss a week or two, at least, with a bone bruise on his knee.
INJURY UPDATE: Tacko Fall has been diagnosed with a bone bruise on his right knee that was sustained in the game against the Memphis Hustle on 11/25. He will be reassessed in 1-2 weeks.

In his first six games with the Red Claws, Fall is averaging 15 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 2.7 blocks per game. The 7'5" fan favorite needs a lot of seasoning — that’s why he’s in the G-League — but he’s showing promise and signs of development. It’s exactly what Celtics fans should be hoping for from him right now.
