The Vertically Enhanced Tacko Fall Gets Concussed by Low Ceiling

Life must certainly present unique challenges for Tacko Fall.

The impossibly tall rookie was forced to miss the Celtics opener in Philly due to his presence in the concussion protocol.

Apparently, the big guy was simply trying to wash his hands at the team practice facility last week when fate intervened in the form of a low ceiling.

Of course, blaming the ceiling in this particular instance seems unfair.

 

In most circumstances, teams don't have to worry about altering their facilities to accommodate a draftee, but the Celtics might be an exception.

Honestly, we're legitimately concerned for the young man's safety if he can't even use the restroom without sustaining a head injury.

Tacko himself foreshadowed this very thing just last month:

 

We didn't want to see him concussed, either, but we must try to move forward now.

Beyond the dangers of entering and exiting buildings, Tacko still has to worry about the rigors of his first NBA season.

Not to mention low flying aircraft.

 

Careful out there.
