The Boston Celtics are set to face the Orlando Magic, having recalled Baylor Scheierman from the Maine Celtics in the G League. Schierman, the 30th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, has had limited NBA action, averaging 1.4 rebounds in five games.

He has been impressive in the G League, averaging 18.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 3.2 assists. His performance could be crucial if Sam Hauser is unable to play due to back spasms. The Celtics currently hold a strong 22-6 record, positioning them as the second seed in the Eastern Conference.
