Both got were included in the group of 10 that got invites to the NBA combine after the G league combine.

That's awesome!

More importantly for UC fans, Jarron Cumberland did not.

I just want to know where the hell this trainer has been??? If Tacko can shoot FT's like this... he's all of a sudden unstoppable.

Wow. Good job by the trainer. I've advocated for big men to use the "granny" style.

His motion has cleaned up a lot. His release is much lower (allowing for.more arc), he know has a slight forward lean which will help when he is tired late in the game, and is aiming for the front of the rim. Obviously not a pressure game situation but if he sticks to his routine there will drastic change over the next year or so as he becomes more confident and muscle memory locks in.

Nice job by Tacko to keep at it and not get frustrated as he worked through it.

I've seen several reports that Jeffries has looked like the most pro ready prospect at many of the workouts.

That's great, I felt like he was the perfect 3 and D type, with his athleticism and ability to finish around the rim he looked like a good prospect. I thought a free agency contract was likely, but with him moving into the draft he could end up in a good place with the opportunity to be an early contributor.

If Fall could shoot 70% from the line, he's a top 5 draft pick.

I don't know about that. I do think the Duke game helped him more than anything. How much he altered the plan of a team of future NBA players had to open some eyes. They played completely different when he was in the game.

It is unfortunate the trainer was not found or used while Fall was at UCF.

That dude sure makes UCF's staff look bad. Especially if Fall knocks those down in games in the NBA.

There was always talk about how Fall would shoot free throws well at practice. It just didn't transition to the games apparently.

Free throw shooting at UCF has been below expectations for a while now. I have to imagine that it's someone important's nephew that's taking the lead on the training.

Great for Tacko. He has a good heart and wants to use his success to help people back home. Hard not to root for a guy like him. Hope he gets drafted, sticks around the league a long time and make a ton of money!
