The Celtics' summer league team was already set to be one of the more entertaining squads across the association next month in Las Vegas after selecting four players during the 2019 NBA Draft. That group just added a bit of intrigue after Jonathan Givony of ESPN.com reported that the C's were bringing 7-foot-6 center Tacko Fall aboard.
Tacko Fall will sign an Exhibit 10 contract with the Boston Celtics, a source told ESPN. Pencil in July 8th at 430 at Thomas and Mack for your first TACKO Vegas Summer League fix.

Cliff notes version on a player signing an Exhibit 10:
* Non-guaranteed contract
* Player could earn up to a $5-50K bonus if he is waived and spends 60 days with G-league affiliate.
* Does not count toward the salary cap.
