NBA Rumors: Former Celtics Center Tacko Fall, Cavs to Agree to Contract

The Cleveland Cavaliers and center Tacko Fall agreed to a two-way contract Saturday.

Shams Charania of The Athletic and Stadium reported Fall nabbed the contract with strong play during training camp. The 7'5" big man was solid in limited minutes, including an eight-point, five-rebound effort in the Cavs' preseason finale against the Indiana Pacers.

Fall spent his first two NBA seasons with the Boston Celtics, averaging 2.7 points and 2.6 rebounds across 26 appearances.

His size makes him nearly impossible to defend on the offensive end, though his game has clear limitations. He doesn't stretch the floor and lacks the lateral quickness to defend the perimeter on pick-and-rolls, though his length makes him a deterrent when he's able to hang back and protect the rim.
