The Brooklyn Nets' decision to select Egor Demin in the latest draft surprised many, but insiders had an inkling after Kon Knueppel was selected. This choice aligns well with Demin's aspirations, offering him a chance for development and playing time in a city with a significant Russian community. Demin expressed excitement about joining Brooklyn, noting its vibrant atmosphere reminiscent of Moscow, and his eagerness to contribute to the historic organization. He had prepared intensely for this opportunity, having previously participated in multiple workouts with the team.
It's a great opportunity to be in a team where I'll be able to develop myself and also impact the game any way I can and just learn a lot.
At some point, we got a text from Brooklyn that said 'He's ours!' And we all got chills. Egor went straight Russian mode because he had no expression on his face.
