Nets Stay Put at No. 8 and Select BYU’s Egor Demin in 2025 NBA Draft
- The Brooklyn Nets selected Russian guard Egor Demin with the eighth pick at the 2025 NBA Draft on June 25 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.

- Demin is a 6-foot-9 BYU star who averaged 10.6 points and 5.5 assists last season, worked out with the Nets three times, and impressed scouts with his size and vision.
- Demin said, "It's a great opportunity to be in a team where I'll be able to develop myself," and expressed hope to inspire kids in Russia beyond his own NBA dream.
- His selection marks the Nets' first top-10 pick since 2010 and signals their commitment to developing young talent while maintaining multiple first-round picks.
