Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Making first NBA start Wednesday
Rotowire
Scheierman is in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Magic on Wednesday, Cody Taylor of USA Today reports.
The rookie first-round pick out of Creighton will make his first NBA start due to the absences of Jayson Tatum (ankle), Jaylen Brown (knee), Jrue Holiday (shoulder) and Derrick White (ankle). Scheierman has seen his minutes grow since the All-Star break and should see plenty of scoring opportunities with the Celtics missing their top six players Wednesday.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Sees 21 minutes in blowout
Rotowire
Scheierman provided six points (2-6 FG, 2-6 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal across 21 minutes during Sunday's 124-90 win over the Wizards.
The Celtics ran away with this game in a hurry, allowing Scheierman to see some minutes in garbage time. The Celtics have four games remaining in the regular season and have already claimed the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference, so Scheierman may get more opportunities going forward if the Celtics rest their key players.

Rotowire
Scheierman provided nine points (3-6 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals in 28 minutes during Monday's 113-95 victory over Sacramento.
Sam Hauser (back) and Al Horford (rest) both missed this contest, while Jayson Tatum (ankle) left the game early. Scheierman made the most of his opportunity with a productive showing on both ends of the court, and he's likely to get more chances to impress down the final stretch with the Celtics looking to keep their key players fresh for the postseason.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Goes to Boston to end first round
Rotowire
The Celtics selected Scheierman with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
A five-year college player between South Dakota State and Creighton, Scheierman is a capable scorer and a solid rebounder who is comfortable running the pick-and-roll. He does have some warts on defense, as he lacks length and general athleticism, but he might be one of the best movement shooters in the draft. That said, he'll have a minimal role in Boston this season and can safely be ignored in redraft fantasy leagues.
