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, 2025, at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.
  • The Nets targeted Demin to fill their biggest need for a true facilitator and continue rebuilding after a 26-56 season finishing 12th in the Eastern Conference.
  • Demin, a 6-foot-9 point guard from BYU, averaged 10.6 points and 5.5 assists last season and impressed the Nets with three predraft workouts and his strong court vision.
  • Demin said, "I'll be able to develop myself" and hopes to inspire kids in Russia to work hard, calling Brooklyn the perfect place to grow with a large Russian community.
  • Demin’s selection begins a key development phase for the Nets’ young core as they keep all remaining picks, with GM Sean Marks holding four first-rounders to shape the future.
