WATCH: Tacko's highlight-reel block on Westbrook originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
Tacko Fall got first-quarter minutes for the first time in his NBA career Friday night, and he made the most of them.
The Boston Celtics phenom wasted no time making his presence felt vs. the Washington Wizards. Former NBA MVP Russell Westbrook attempted a drive to the basket only to be denied by the 7-foot-5 Fall.
