Baylor Scheierman News, Rumors, Updates - Boston Celtics

Perfect from deep Scheierman produced eight points (3-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds and one steal across 18 minutes during Tuesday's 121-113 loss to the Pistons.

Impact Scheierman made the most of his limited offensive opportunities, converting both three-point attempts while adding a steal. He matched Sam Hauser's playing time as Boston distributed minutes among its reserve wings, but Scheierman's four shot attempts highlight the difficulty of producing consistent fantasy numbers in a supporting role. His perimeter shooting could help him earn additional opportunities as the season progresses.

Struggles from field in overtime win Scheierman posted seven points (1-11 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), four rebounds, five assists and a steal across 19 minutes in Friday's 125-120 preseason overtime win over the 76ers.

Impact Scheierman made just one of his 11 field-goal attempts while missing five of his six shots from beyond the arc, so there's no question this was a subpar scoring display. However, the guard contributed in other areas, finishing with five assists and four rebounds while helping Boston overcome a fourth-quarter deficit. His playmaking provided some value despite the inefficient scoring, although his two turnovers and poor perimeter shooting limited his overall impact. Scheierman will look to bounce back offensively as the Celtics prepare for the regular season, and the former Creighton standout is expected to see consistent minutes, although his bench role will limit his fantasy upside considerably.

Drains four threes Thursday Scheierman posted 16 points (5-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and three assists across 23 minutes in Thursday's 124-113 preseason win over the Cavaliers.

Impact The Celtics decided to start a reserve squad for this game and Scheierman made the most of the opportunity, ending as one of four starters with at least 15 points and connecting on a team-high four triples. Scheierman's outside shooting could help him compete for consistent minutes on the wing ahead of the start of the regular season, and he's in the mix for the starting shooting guard role with Sam Hauser, Hugo Gonzalez and Peyton Pritchard.
