Anyone who watched Duke’s run through the 2019 NCAA Tournament got to see just how impactful hulking big man Tacko Fall is on defense.
The former UCF center gave even the most talented player in college basketball, Zion Williamson, fits in the second round of the tournament – so much so that the UCF Knights almost defeated the Blue Devils on the back of Fall’s immense size.
Despite that showing, Fall was not invited to the 2019 NBA Draft Combine, meaning teams (including the Atlanta Hawks) would not have been able to see him up close.
