The Boston Celtics selected Baylor Scheierman with the 30th pick in the NBA draft. The five-year Creighton product enters the NBA with a diverse offensive skillset, specifically on the perimeter where he projects as a reliable floor spacer. Nevertheless, Scheierman is also adept at attacking off the dribble, creating for others and is a high-level rebounder.
Scheierman announced himself to Celtics fans during his five-game stint at Las Vegas Summer League, where he averaged 11.2 points, 5.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists while shooting 36.2% from the field. Scheierman will likely compete for a spot in Joe Mazzulla’s primary rotation next season but must improve on the defensive end.
Following the completion of Boston’s summer league participation, Tomasz Kordyleski posted a highlight reel of Scheierman’s summer league performances to his YouTube channel. Throughout the video, you can see the offensive upside he brings to the table, along with some of his stronger areas on the defensive end.
