Tacko Fall Girlfriend: Is He Dating K Mataya Fall?

This article was last updated by on

K Mataya Fall is rumored to be the former NBA player Tacko Fall’s girlfriend. The two have kept their relationship out of the public spotlight. 

The former Boston Celtics player, Tacko Fall, has only recently opened up about his relationship status. He shared a series of pictures with a woman named K Mataya Fall, who seems to live in Illinois. 

The 7’6 basketball player failed to impress any NBA team with his performance in the Summer League, leaving him to prolong his stay in China. He has recently signed with the CBA team of Nanjing Monkey Kings.

After not creating much impact in the NBA, Tacko has enjoyed success in China. Last season with Xinjiang Flying Tigers, Tacko played 33 games averaging 13.8 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 3.3 blocks per game. 

During a sitdown with Sham Charania, Tacko talked about the new NBA star Victor Wembanyama and said he would feel awkward as it would be one of a few times he looks somebody in the eye. 

Tacko Fall Girlfriend: Is He Dating K Mataya Fall?

There isn’t much information about Tacko Fall and his relationship status. The 7’6 basketball star has tried to keep his love life out of the public limelight.

On his Instagram, Tacklo Fall has only shared one post about his dating life. Last month in July, he shared a series of pictures with a woman named K Mataya Fall. He captioned the post, “Never a dull moment with my partner in crime.”

The former NBA player also added an emoji ring at the end of his caption, which might even mean they are engaged. Now, seeing that the ladies’ last name is also Fall, it might also mean that the two are married, but Tacko hasn’t shared any wedding pictures on his Instagram handle.

K Mataya’s Instagram handle is also private, limiting any information related to the couple. Twitter is the only other social media Tacko uses, but he never shares anything personal on his handle. 

During his conversation with Shams Charania, the reporter congratulated the basketball player for being a first-time dad. Tacko said the birth of his daughter is the best thing that has happened to him. 

When asked by the reporter if he thinks his child will become a hooper, Tacko said he wants his daughter to do whatever she wants but wishes she becomes a tennis player. 

Tacko Fall Parents: Mother Marianne Sene Continues To Live In Senegal 

Tacko Fall’s parents, dad, and mother, Marianne Sene, raised the basketball player in Dakar, Senegal. Marianne Sene continues to live in Senegal despite Tacko finding success overseas. 

Many might think Tacko received his tall genetics from his parents, just like the new NBA star, Victor Wembanyama. Victor’s dad is 6’6, and his mother is 6’3. But Tacko’s parents aren’t that tall. 

Tacko’s dad is 6 feet tall, and his mother, Marianne Sene, is 5’8. Though 5’8 is taller than the average Senegalese woman, many might have thought Marianne was 6 feet.

The mother to two boys, Marianne watched her son play in the US for the first time in 2019. Tacko and his family were given a special presentation during the game between UCF Knights and Cincinnati in March 2019. This was the first time Fall had seen his mother in seven years.

Tacko had left his home at 16, and at first, Marianne was against her son traveling a thousand miles away from her. But the thought of her son getting better opportunities academically and as an athlete made Marianne rethink her decision.

Tacko’s father is also said to be a cab driver in Ohio and encouraged Marianne to send their son to the US. The basketball player lived with his father for a while before trying out schools in Georgia and Tennessee. 

In an interview with Yahoo!, Tacko said he felt homesick during his first year but finally settled at Liberty Christian Prep. 

On his Instagram handle, Tacko shares pictures of his family living in Senegal. In August 2019, he shared an appreciation post for his family as he traveled for a few days to Senegal. He has also previously shared an appreciation post for his mother and grandmother on Mother’s Day.
