"And then obviously the minutes played. Egor, I believe, leads the rookies right now in minutes. And Noah, as one of the younger guys, third year in the league, just turned 21. He's earned those minutes. He's doing great things, and we believe and know they can do even better."
"Pull behind. He likes to pass, so make yourself available to where he can pass you the ball."

Teammates are shooting 39.5% from three on passes from Demin, above Brooklyn's 33.4% through 14 games.
