    None and done for Breakers seven-foot-six-inch recruit Tacko Fall, at least for now

    None and done for Breakers seven-foot-six-inch recruit Tacko Fall, at least for now


    He was brought in to play in their three games against NBA basketball sides in the United States.

    However, the former Boston Celtics centre's been ruled out of today's second game against the Philadelphia 76ers, which is tipping off now.

    He'll miss game three against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Friday and was also absent for last week's opener against the Utah Jazz due to a quad injury.

    Breakers owner Matt Walsh remains ever hopeful.
