Scheierman will start Saturday's Game 7 of the Eastern Conference first-round series against the 76ers, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Celtics are fighting to keep their season alive with Jayson Tatum (knee) sidelined, and they'll roll with a starting lineup of Derrick White, Ron Harper, Jaylen Brown, Luka Garza and Scheierman. The second-year forward started 20 regular-season games in 2025-26, during which he averaged 9.6 points, 5.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 0.9 steals in 28.4 minutes per tilt.

Scheierman is not in Boston's starting lineup against Philadelphia for Game 1 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The Celtics rested all of their starters and prominent role players in their regular-season finale against the Magic on April 12, which led to Scheierman starting and finishing with 30 points, seven assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block over 38 minutes in a 113-108 win. The second-year pro has established a consistent role for himself off the bench this season, and he should maintain that role in the playoffs.

Scheierman recorded 30 points (8-20 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 8-8 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, two steals and a block in 38 minutes during Sunday's 113-108 win over the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Scheierman stepped into a featured role due to the Celtics benching the majority of their rotation players for the regular-season finale, and he took full advantage of the opportunity with a career-high 30 points. Unsurprisingly, Scheierman did much of his work from beyond the arc, connecting on a team-high six threes, which matched his career high. On top of his scoring, Scheierman dished out a career-high seven assists. In an expanded role over the last three games, Sheierman has averaged 19.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 3.0 assists per game.

Scheierman is in Boston's starting lineup against Orlando on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Scheierman has come off the bench in each of the Celtics' last six games, but he'll make his 20th start of the season Sunday with all of the starters sitting, including Jayson Tatum (Achilles) and Jaylen Brown (Achilles). As a starter this season, Scheierman has averaged 8.5 points, 5.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists. 1.8 threes and 0.8 steals over 27.8 minutes per game.

Scheierman supplied 20 points (7-8 FG, 6-7 3Pt) and four rebounds across 30 minutes in Thursday's 112-106 loss to the Knicks.

EDGE Analysis

With Jaylen Brown (Achilles) unavailable for the front end of this back-to-back set, Scheierman saw a significant bump in playing time and capitalized after logging just nine minutes in Tuesday's win over the Hornets. The 25-year-old swingman caught fire from downtown and knocked down a season high in three-pointers made while tying his career-best mark. He finished as Boston's third-leading scorer with 20 points, matching his career high.

Scheierman won't start Wednesday's game against the Heat.

EDGE Analysis

Sam Hauser will return to the starting five Wednesday, pushing Scheierman to the second unit. He has averaged 7.0 points, 4.4 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 25.0 minutes per contest over his last five appearances off the bench.

Scheierman will start in Monday's game against Atlanta, according to Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston.

EDGE Analysis

Scheierman came off the bench in Sunday's 114-99 win over the Charlotte Hornets. However, he will return to the starting lineup for the rematch with the Hawks. In 18 starts this season, the 25-year-old has averaged 8.8 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 0.1 blocks and 0.8 steals across 27.9 minutes per game.

Scheierman will not start Sunday's game against the Hornets, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Scheierman started Friday's win over Atlanta in Jaylen Brown's (Achilles) absence, though it'll be Jordan Walsh who gets the starting nod Sunday. Scheierman has averaged 5.8 points, 5.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 24.6 minutes per contest over his last five outings off the bench.

Scheierman supplied three points (1-3 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds and two assists over 28 minutes during Friday's 109-102 victory over Atlanta.

EDGE Analysis

Scheierman moved into the starting lineup, replacing Jaylen Brown, who was ruled out with a calf injury. While the injury doesn't sound too serious, there is a chance Brown could miss at least another game or two, giving Scheierman some short-term appeal for anyone needing threes. With that said, his upside is very limited, meaning managers could likely find a more appealing option on the waiver wire.

Scheierman will start in Friday's game against Atlanta, according to Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com.

EDGE Analysis

Jaylen Brown (calf) won't play, so Scheierman will enter the starting lineup. The 2024 No. 30 overall pick has started 17 times this season, amassing 9.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 0.1 blocks and 0.9 steals in those appearances.
