u043fu0440u0438u0432u0435u0442! You're reading The Daily Demin, an irregular update on Egor Demin's NBA journey. From Russia to Madrid. From Provo to Brooklyn, this is his basketball story.
The Brooklyn Nets are feeling pretty good about burning their 8th selection in the 2025 NBA Draft on that spindly Russian rookie out of Brigham Young University. In just one appearance in the NBA preseason, he's silenced the doubters, made the unbelievers believers, and most of all looked every ounce worthy of his top-10 status among his draft class.
Sure, one game is one game, and one could scribble out a thousand reasons why this 6-foot-9 point guard will actually be the biggest bust in the entire draft class and how Brooklyn couldn't have been more careless and wasteful with their precious draft ticket.
