2) Baylor Scheierman vs. Grizzlies
Stat Line: 8 PTS, 5 REB, 4 AST (2/14 FG, 1/8 3PT)
Baylor Scheierman was Brad Stevens's first pick in the first round since taking over as President of Basketball Operations for the Boston Celtics. The Creighton product was viewed entering the league as an oversized do-it-all forward with the ability to be a knockdown shooter and willing passer.
The rookie struggled from the start of Summer League last offseason and carried those struggles into the regular season, until he seemingly started to put it all together down the stretch for the C's after a lengthy stint in the G League.
Heading into a pivotal retooling year for the Celtics, Scheierman seemed to have a prime opportunity ahead of him to prove he can make an impact in Joe Mazzulla's rotation. Unfortunately, the playmaker failed to capitalize on the opportunity in Summer League, stringing together multiple subpar performances, including this matchup against the Grizzlies.
Scheirman finished summer league play shooting 27% from field goal range and 20% from three.
