The Celtics are going to keep Tacko Fall in New England on a two-way deal, according to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski.

Celtics are converting 7-foot-6 rookie Tacko Fall to a two-way contract, league sources tell ESPN. He will spend most of his season developing with G-League affiliate Maine, but can spend up to 45 days with Celtics in NBA.

Originally with the Celtics on an Exhibit 10 contract, the Celtics have worked to further develop the raw 7-foot-6 center and while the Exhibit 10 contact seemed like their best play at one point, the chance of losing the 23-year-old Fall to waivers in an attempt to pass him through to the G League made converting his deal to a two-way contract a near-must for Danny Ainge.

Now on a two-way deal, Fall can spend up to 45 days with the Celtics, but will spent the majority of his 2019-20 season with the Maine Red Claws (based out of Portland, for those in need of a good time).

Fall has appeared in two preseason games this month, with five points on 2-for-4 shooting, five rebounds, two blocks, and an assist in 14 total minutes.
