What happened
Egor Demin said after Monday’s practice that he wants to win and learn how to help Brooklyn in any role, on or off the ball, while coach Jordi Fernández said he likes Demin’s floor vision and his work getting into the paint.
Demin also said he is focused on improving every day, and the article notes he missed 30 games last season before a late-March plantar fasciitis issue that the team says is now behind him.
Demin’s added strength and comfort downhill could affect how Brooklyn uses him in the backcourt and as a secondary ballhandler. The piece does not lock in a fixed regular-season role, so his exact minutes and usage remain open.
