The Boston Celtics have added two rookies this summer. Baylor Scheierman joined with the 30th pick, and Anton Watson was added to the roster with the 54th selection. Today, I want to focus on Scheierman and what he brings to the table. As a five-year collegiate product, he enters the NBA as a polished prospect with a high floor. However, he’s also entering one of the most challenging situations in the NBA regarding available minutes.
Scheierman could absorb the minutes Oshae Brissett commanded last season — assuming he doesn’t return for another run at a championship.
