The event, set for 9 p.m. ET at Intuit Dome and airing on Peacock, gathers much of the league's young core for a four-team mini-tournament. Three squads of NBA rookies and sophomores will be led by Hall of Famers Carmelo Anthony, Tracy McGrady and Vince Carter, while a fourth team of G League standouts will be coached by Austin Rivers. Dëmin slots onto Team Vince, alongside VJ Edgecombe, Derik Queen, Kyshawn George, Matas Buzelis, Cedric Coward and Jaylen Wells.

"There's a reason why we drafted him," Brooklyn coach Jordie Fernandez said. "We believed that (his) shooting was NBA shooting and he's proven it from the beginning."

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.

"I think it's about just the mindset and really how can we trust ourselves? And trust our work? And trust our coaches who have been putting this information into our heads throughout the summer? How can we execute it better? How can we be more aggressive?"

Egor Demin silenced doubts about his NBA shooting potential with an impressive performance in Las Vegas, securing the Nets' first Summer League victory with critical late-game 3-pointers.

The Brooklyn Nets selected Egor Demin with the eighth pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, highlighting their focus on rebuilding and youth.
