Boston Celtics rookie Baylor Scheierman put the team on his back during Tuesday night's 104-96 win over the Brooklyn Nets, dropping a career-high 20 points alongside three rebounds and one assist. Without stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, the Celtics needed someone to pick up the slack—and Scheierman delivered, aided by strong performances from Kristaps Porzingis and Derrick White, as well (25 and 18 points, respectively).
In honor of his big game, Scheierman's teammates doused him with water while still on the court. But they also got him again in the locker room, when Scheierman appeared totally unsuspecting.
