Celtics pick Creighton’s Baylor Scheierman with No. 30 overall pick in NBA Draft

The Celtics selected Creighton forward Baylor Scheierman with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft Wednesday night.

With the final pick of the first round, the Celtics added a 6-foot-6, 205-pound sharpshooter. Scheierman shot 39 percent from 3-point range during his college career. He was a first-team All-Big East selection this past season, averaging 18.5 points and 9 rebounds per game.

Scheierman was a third-team All-American selection by the Associated Press. He’s the first player in Division I men’s basketball history with at least 2,000 points, 1,000 rebounds, 500 assists, and 300 3-pointers.
