Watch: Tacko Fall off to hot start against Duke, Zion Williamson
Tacko Fall got off to a hot start in his heavily-hyped matchup against Zion Williamson on Sunday.
UCF and Duke squared off in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. All the talk leading up to the game was about Williamson facing the 7-foot-6 UCF big man and whether Zion would be able to dunk on the center, or vice versa.

Fall got a couple of dunks early in the game and also sort of blocked Williamson.

The funny part is Javin DeLaurier spent most of the time guarding Fall for Duke, not Williamson, who was guarding Collin Smith. The media and TV folks wanted you to think it was just those two squaring off though.
Fall took a seat after committing his second foul in the first half, which slowed UCF’s momentum.
