sorry if already posted: UCF's Tacko Fall Declares For The NBA Draft
After two seasons playing for the UCF Knights, Tacko Fall will declare for the NBA draft without an agent.
Fall, who is 7’6 and one of the 40 tallest men in the World averaged 9.3 points, 7.9 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks per game during his time at UCF.
“This is a tremendous opportunity for Tacko,” UCF head coach Johnny Dawkins said. “He will be able to learn more about himself and his game during this process and we will be there to help him along the way.” -That is according to Daniel Forcella of ucfknights.com.
Fall also made a statement on declaring for the 2017 NBA Draft and this is what he had to say.
“This season has been the most fun I’ve ever had,” Fall said. “What we accomplished this year was special and I thank you all for your continued support. Having said that, it has been a dream of mine to play in the NBA so I look forward to going through the process and I thank Coach Dawkins and the staff for helping me through it.”
The key to all of this is the fact that Fall will not hire an agent. What that means is that Fall can go to the NBA draft combine, go through the workouts, get NBA scouts at the combine to give Fall what he has tom work on for the NBA level and then can take his name off the draft boards and can retain eligibility to come back and play for UCF next season.
