Boston assigned Scheierman to the Maine Celtics of the G League on Wednesday.
Scheierman isn't expected to crack Boston's rotation on a consistent basis any time soon, so he'll have to get most of his live reps with Maine.

Boston recalled Scheierman from the G League's Maine Celtics on Tuesday.
Boston begins a back-to-back set Tuesday against Atlanta, and Scheierman will be available to provide depth on the wing. Jayson Tatum (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Hawks, so the rookie first-round pick could be needed in the rotation if Tatum sits out.

Rotowire
The Celtics selected Scheierman with the No. 30 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
A five-year college player between South Dakota State and Creighton, Scheierman is a capable scorer and a solid rebounder who is comfortable running the pick-and-roll. He does have some warts on defense, as he lacks length and general athleticism, but he might be one of the best movement shooters in the draft. That said, he'll have a minimal role in Boston this season and can safely be ignored in redraft fantasy leagues.
