Tacko Fall highlights: Celtics rookie's first NBA dunk was a thing of beauty

Share

Tacko Fall has arrived, folks.

The Boston Celtics' 7-foot-6 rookie and fan favorite made his NBA debut late in the fourth quarter of Saturday night's game against the New York Knicks.

And he didn't disappoint.

On the Celtics' first offensive possession with Fall in the game, the Senegalese sensation took a Javonte Green pass and used all of his 7-foot-6 frame to deliver a "standing dunk."

How do you stop that?

Fall added another bucket at the rim on Boston's next possession.

Fall played three eventful minutes in the Celtics' 118-95 rout, finishing with four points on 2-of-4 shooting with three rebounds and a block.

Most importantly, he provided entertainment to a Madison Square Garden crowd that couldn't help but cheer for the enemy.

Check out Fall's full highlights below and in the video player above.
