One of the coolest photographs in sports history has been recreated, and NBA fans have a pair of Boston Celtics players to thank.
Years ago, Manute Bol, the tallest player in NBA history, posed with Muggsy Bogues, the shortest player in NBA history, for a a series of iconic pictures. Well, Celtics prospects Tacko Fall and Tremont Waters have done their best to channel the amazing photos.
Take a look:

It’s worth noting that the height difference between Fall (7-foot-5) and Waters (5-foot-10) is less than the difference between Bol (7-foot-7) and Bogues (5-foot-3).
Still, this picture is a neat reminder of the amazing height range one can see on a basketball court.
