Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Starting Monday
Scheierman will start Monday's game against the Rockets, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Scheierman will earn his first start of the season after scoring a season-high 10 points in 20 minutes off the bench during Sunday's 108-97 win over Orlando. Hugo Gonzalez will slide back to the bench after starting the first leg of this back-to-back for Boston.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Has option picked up
Scheierman had his 2027-28 rookie-scale team option picked up by Boston on Friday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports
It's a fourth-year option for Scheierman, which keeps the forward under team control for at least one more season after 2026-27. Scheierman is a significant reserve on the wing alongside Sam Hauser and Hugo Gonzalez for the Celtics.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Scores three points in win
Scheierman produced three points (1-5 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 21 minutes during Tuesday's 125-124 overtime victory over the Nets.
Scheierman struggled to find his shot, connecting on just one of his five field-goal attempts. The second-year wing contributed modestly in other categories but remained a secondary offensive option despite receiving 21 minutes off the bench. His limited scoring opportunities make him a difficult option to roster outside deeper fantasy leagues.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: 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.
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.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: 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.
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.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: 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.
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.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Eyes bigger role this season
Scheierman is a candidate to start for the Celtics this season, per Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com.
Scheierman made a career-high 20 starts in the regular season last year and appears positioned to compete for a meaningful role on the wing at training camp. The Celtics appear steadfast in their commitment to play Payton Pritchard as their sixth man off the bench, leaving Scheierman to compete with the likes of Hugo Gonzalez, Jordan Walsh and Sam Hauser for a starting job.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Starting Game 7
Scheierman will start Saturday's Game 7 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the 76ers, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
The Celtics are fighting to keep their season alive with Jayson Tatum (knee) sidelined, and they'll roll with a starting lineup of Derrick White, Ron Harper, Jaylen Brown, Luka Garza and Scheierman. The second-year forward started 20 regular-season games in 2025-26, during which he averaged 9.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.9 steals in 28.4 minutes per tilt.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Back to bench Sunday
Scheierman is not in Boston's starting lineup against Philadelphia for Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday.
The Celtics rested all of their starters and prominent role players in their regular-season finale against the Magic on April 12, which led to Scheierman starting and finishing with 30 points, seven assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block over 38 minutes in a 113-108 win. The second-year pro has established a consistent role for himself off the bench this season, and he should maintain that role in the playoffs.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Career performance in win
Scheierman recorded 30 points (8-20 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 8-8 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, two steals and a block in 38 minutes during Sunday's 113-108 win over the Magic.
Scheierman stepped into a featured role due to the Celtics benching the majority of their rotation players for the regular-season finale, and he took full advantage of the opportunity with a career-high 30 points. Unsurprisingly, Scheierman did much of his work from beyond the arc, connecting on a team-high six threes, which matched his career high. On top of his scoring, Scheierman dished out a career-high seven assists. In an expanded role over the last three games, Scheierman has averaged 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game.

Scheierman has come off the bench in each of the Celtics' last six games, but he'll make his 20th start of the season Sunday, with all of the regular starters sitting, including Jayson Tatum (Achilles) and Jaylen Brown (Achilles). As a starter this season, Scheierman has averaged 8.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists. 1.8 threes and 0.8 steals over 27.8 minutes per game.

Celtics' Baylor Scheierman: Ties career highs in loss
Scheierman supplied 20 points (7-8 FG, 6-7 3Pt) and four rebounds across 30 minutes in Thursday's 112-106 loss to the Knicks.
With Jaylen Brown (Achilles) unavailable for the front end of this back-to-back set, Scheierman saw a significant bump in playing time and capitalized after logging just nine minutes in Tuesday's win over the Hornets. The 25-year-old swingman caught fire from downtown and knocked down a season high in three-pointers made while tying his career-best mark. He finished as Boston's third-leading scorer with 20 points, matching his career high.
