Aurora needs to start painting the town green.

The defending champion Boston Celtics drafted the former Husky with the 30th pick in this year’s NBA Draft.

The 6-7 forward was just shy of averaging a double-double for Creighton this season, averaging 18.5 points per game this past year and 9 rebounds per game on this years 25-10 team, reaching the Sweet Sixteen before falling to Tennessee. He spent five years in the collegiate ranks, with his first three years at South Dakota State before transferring to Creighton.

Scheierman is the third Creighton product ever drafted by the Celtics franchise, and is the fifth men’s basketball player since 2014 to be selected.
