Jaden Ivey hunts through a bible for passages to share with his followers. He evidently did not do the prep-work to place sticky tabs or bookmarks in there, so there are awkward moments of silence while Ivey flips back and forth and sniffs and mutters.
Pete Crow-Armstrong recorded his first 5-Star catch of the season yesterday. This ball off Jacob Young had a 5% catch probability, requiring PCA to cover 68 feet in 3.9 seconds to make the sliding grab.
Dëmin finished with 17 points and five assists on 6-of-10 shooting, drilling 5-of-9 from 3-point range and posting an outrageous 85% true shooting for the night. Standing at 6-9, Dëmin surveys the court with the vision of a quarterback and is already shooting with the poise of a seasoned NBA veteran, a far cry from his pre-draft evaluation. That rare blend is precisely why Sean Marks was willing to take the gamble on him.
Egor Dëmin was named to the Castrol Rising Stars roster as part of NBA All-Star 2026, becoming the first member of the Nets to earn the honor since Jarrett Allen and Rodions Kurucs did it back in 2019. For a rookie class that arrived with more questions than certainty, his selection stands out as a clear signal that Brooklyn's developmental push is starting to get noticed beyond its own walls.
