Baylor Scheierman News, Rumors, Updates - Boston Celtics

Back in Boston's starting five Scheierman is in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Knicks on Sunday, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Scheierman's last start was in Wednesday's 114-93 win over the Rockets, when he posted 15 points, 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 23 minutes in what was the first double-double of his two-year NBA career.

Impact Scheierman has started in each of the Celtics' last two games (and in six games since Jan. 12), but he'll return to the bench Friday due to the return of Jaylen Brown (hamstring/knee) from a one-game absence. Scheierman is coming off a double-double performance against the Rockets on Wednesday, the first of his two-year NBA career.

Posts first NBA double-double Scheierman posted 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists and one steal over 23 minutes during the Celtics' 114-93 win over the Rockets on Wednesday.

Impact Scheierman's 23 minutes Wednesday were his lowest as a starter since Jan. 12 against the Pacers (20). The second-year pro was effective while on the floor, finishing as the Celtics' fourth-leading scorer while recording a career-high in rebounds en route to the first double-double of his NBA career. Scheierman has started in each of Boston's last two games and could remain a starter if head coach Joe Mazulla opts to have Payton Pritchard remain in a reserve role after the Celtics traded Anfernee Simons to the Bulls on Tuesday in exchange for Nikola Vucevic.

It's not clear if Hauser will need to miss any more time, but if he does Scheierman could have some short-term appeal as a DFS punt play.

Shooting woes in win Scheierman finished Friday's 140-122 win over the Pacers with three points (1-4 FG, 1-4 3Pt), five rebounds and one assist over 20 minutes.

Impact Scheierman saw increased run in this one, logging 20-plus minutes for the first time since Dec. 4. However, he was largely unable to capitalize on the opportunity and has now shot just 23.1 percent from the field over his last seven outings. The Celtics have shown they are not afraid to switch up the rotation, though the second-year swingman's struggles don't bode well for his chances of seeing increased playing time on a regular basis.
