Baylor Scheierman is available for Sunday’s game against the 76ers.
Fantasy Impact
Scheierman is good to go after being listed as questionable. He will remain in his usual starting role.
Baylor Scheierman is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the 76ers.
Fantasy Impact
Scheierman is dealing with a fractured left thumb that he suffered during Friday’s win over the Nets. If he sits, it is unclear if Payton Pritchard would return to the starting lineup or another player.
Since entering the starting lineup on February 8, Scheierman has averaged 8.6 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.4 three-pointers in 27.5 minutes per game. Tuesday's win over the Suns added another milestone to that stretch — 11 points (5-of-10 FGs), 11 rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one three-pointer for his second career double-double.
Fantasy Impact
His first came just over two weeks ago, making back-to-back double-doubles within a month a notable development for fantasy managers monitoring his role.
Baylor Scheierman scored 15 points (5-10 FG, 3-8 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go with 10 rebounds and four assists in Wednesday's win over the Rockets.
Fantasy Impact
Scheierman stepped into the starting lineup for the second straight night Wednesday. This time around, the second-year pro was much more productive, picking up some of the slack with Jaylen Brown (hamstring) out. If Brown is forced to miss any more games, Scheierman could be a sneaky plug-and-play replacement on a temporary basis.
Scheierman recorded 16 points on 6-of-10 shooting with four three-pointers in Friday's victory over Sacramento, adding five rebounds, one steal and one assist. He drew the start with Jaylen Brown sidelined due to hamstring and knee issues.
Fantasy Impact
Friday marked the second time Scheierman has entered the starting lineup during Brown's absences this season. Brown's status remains uncertain for Sunday's game against Milwaukee.
