"He's just another connector. He doesn't care about starting, he doesn't care about anything except competing. That doesn't get awarded enough, is competing and care factor. He doesn't care anything about competing at the highest level and executing. He takes a ton of pride in that. When you have a guy that doesn't miss a beat regardless of the situation that he's or the circumstances that he's in, you kind of see stuff like that."
"I don't even know who this kid is. I ain't ever letting nobody named Baylor or Scheierman score on me. Scheierman? Who he play for?"
Baylor Scheierman, a first-round pick in 2024, has become a valuable contributor for the Boston Celtics in his second season. Playing in 59 games with 16 starts during Jayson Tatum's absence, Scheierman recorded a 16-point, 10-rebound double-double against the Cavaliers. Coach Joe Mazzulla praised his competitive nature and execution, noting his willingness to compete at the highest level regardless of circumstances. Despite a recent thumb fracture, Scheierman maintains strong performance metrics, shooting 38.9% from three-point range while averaging 4.8 points and 3.2 rebounds per game. His minutes have remained consistent even as Tatum returns from injury, playing 21 and 25 minutes in recent games.
