Boston Celtics Rookie Stars in Win over Nets
The Boston Celtics began the hunt for their 50th win on Tuesday night down some of the team’s best players, with forwards Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown sitting out due to injury. They took on the Nets, who have struggled mightily this season and are cruising towards a fairly high lottery pick at the 2025 NBA Draft.
Still, Brooklyn hasn’t been a complete pushover this season, and the Celtics needed some fire-power to grab win No. 50. Luckily, they got just that from rookie Baylor Scheierman.
The final first round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, Scheierman has gotten extremely limited burn for the defending champions this season, playing in just 18 games in total at just seven minutes apiece. As a player who thrives via rhythm, he’s done little in those minutes, scoring just 1.7 points per game on 27% shooting.
Against the Nets, though, Scheierman saw what was easily the best professional game of his short career so far. Across his 16 minutes, he poured on a blistering 20 points on 7-for-8 shooting, hitting all but one of his seven 3-point attempts.
Even more, the former Creighton sharpshooter did more than just sink triples, adding three rebounds, two steals and an assist in finishing with a +4 plus-minus.
Suffice it to say, Scheierman was pivotal in the team’s eight-point win, which came down to the wire. With the clock winding down, the 6-foot-6 wing scored nine-straight points to will the Celtics an arms-length lead.
With contention again on the horizon, there’s likely no real chance Scheierman’s able to insert himself into the lineup in the near future. But in the least, he’s shown some sky-high ability as a perimeter scorer.
The Celtics next take on Utah on Friday, March 21.

Red Sox at Reds preview: Sonny Gray makes his first start for Boston – The Boston Globe
Gray, acquired in a November trade from the St. Louis Cardinals, was one of Boston’s key rotation additions, along with Ranger Suarez, in the offseason. He was 14-8 with a 4.28 ERA in 2025.
“He’s very specific about his work. Every day has a purpose,” Red Sox manager Alex Cora said of Gray. “Two hundred strikeouts, that’s something that we were looking for. The competitor. Every five days, this guy is going to give you everything.”
In his five career appearances against the Reds, Gray is 1-3 with a 4.18 ERA.
“It’s pretty much one of the only things that is continuing to push me, is to get to a World Series, to win a World Series, to pitch in big games,” said Gray. “I love the moment, and I am chasing that moment.”
Here’s the preview:
RED SOX (1-0): TBA
Pitching: RHP Sonny Gray
REDS (0-1): TBA
Pitching: RHP Brady Singer
Time: 4:10 p.m.
TV, radio: NESN, WEEI-FM 93.7
Red Sox vs. Singer: Wilyer Abreu 2-5, Roman Anthony 1-2, Willson Contreras 2-7, Jarren Duran 3-10, Caleb Durbin 0-1, Isiah Kiner-Falefa 6-16, Marcelo Mayer 0-1, Andruw Monasterio 1-4, Carlos Narváez 1-1, Ceddanne Rafaela 1-5, Trevor Story 0-4, Connor Wong 2-8, Masataka Yoshida 2-7
Reds vs. Gray: Will Benson 0-5, Elly De La Cruz 5-11, TJ Friedl 1-8, Ke’Bryan Hayes 4-17, Nathaniel Lowe 2-10, Noelvi Marte 0-5, Matt McLain 2-2, Spencer Steer 4-9, Tyler Stephenson 0-8, Eugenio Suárez 7-13, Jose Trevino 0-2
Stat of the day: Sal Stewart become the first Cincinnati rookie since 1958 to record three hits on Opening Day.
Notes: Cincinnati sends righthander Brady Singer (14-12, 4.03 in 2025) to the mound … With Hunter Greene and Nick Lodolo already on the injured list to start the season, Singer is considered one of Cincinnati’s most durable pitchers, leading the Reds with 32 starts last season … Singer has made five career starts against Boston, posting a 2-2 record with a 4.88 ERA over 24 innings … His last appearance against the Red Sox, on July 1 in Boston, ended after just three innings when he allowed two earned runs on three hits.
