NBA reporter Marc Stein reports that Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) will miss the rest of the season due to plantar fasciitis in his left foot, a condition he's been dealing with most of this campaign. The Nets are being cautious with the 20-year-old rookie guard in hopes that he is fully recovered and ready to go for next season. Through 52 appearances this year, he posted averages of 10.3 points, 3.3 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 2.4 three-pointers across 25.2 minutes per game. With Demin unavailable, Nolan Traore, Terance Mann, and Ziaire Williams could take on heavier workloads for the forseeable future.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Demin will miss his fifth game in a row due to a lingering foot injury. He continues to be ruled out a full day in advance, which doesn't bode well for his game status on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should check back for another update, but Demin should be considered highly questionable for Tuesday's game. Nolan Traore, Terance Mann, and Ziaire Williams should all see increased roles while Demin is out. Both Mann and Williams are worth looking at as streaming options while Demin is sidelined.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. The rookie guard will miss his third game in a row due to a left foot issue. His next chance to get back on the court will be on Saturday, so fantasy managers should check back then. In the meantime, Terance Mann figures to draw another start with Demin still sidelined. Mann finished with eight points, two assists, and three rebounds across 27 minutes of action on Tuesday. He should offer some low-end streaming appeal while Demin is out.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) will miss Tuesday's game against Miami, sidelined for a second straight contest while managing a left plantar fascia issue. His next chance to return comes Thursday in a rematch with the Heat. Nolan Traore should continue handling expanded responsibility after posting 17 points, two assists, one rebound, one triple, and one steal in 30 minutes last game. Terance Mann and Ziaire Williams saw minutes but failed to deliver usable fantasy lines. Traore is the preferred short-term streamer, while the rest remain fringe options.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (rest) will be active against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. The team hasn't listed him on the injury report after Demin was rested for Monday's contest against Chicago. Terance Mann started in Demin's place on Monday but didn't do much, and he will have even less fantasy appeal coming off the bench. Fantasy managers should be excited about Demin on Wednesday, as Indiana allows point guards to score the third-most fantasy points in the league.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (rest) won't suit up on Monday against the Chicago Bulls. The Russian rookie will be rested after making five consecutive appearances. Demin has had a tough time finding consistency, following Thursday's big 26-point effort against Orlando with a four-point dud in Saturday's win over Washington. The Nets also won't have Michael Porter Jr. (knee) on Monday, leaving two openings in the starting lineup. Danny Wolf is expected to replace Porter Jr., while Terance Mann and Drake Powell are the top candidates to fill in for Demin.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) won't suit up for Thursday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. It's the first of a back-to-back for the Nets, so the rookie is getting a night off to rest before likely returning on Friday against the Utah Jazz. Without Demin on the floor, Ben Saraf is the favorite to replace him in the rotation. However, the 19-year-old has struggled in his five starts this season, averaging only 3.2 points, 3.2 assists, and 2.2 rebounds while shooting 16.7% from behind the arc.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (foot) is unavailable for Monday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns. He will miss the second half of a back-to-back for maintenance due to left foot plantar fasciitis, after he played in three straight games. On Sunday versus Chicago, the 19-year-old posted 11 points, one assist and one rebound across 22 minutes. While Demin is out of action, 26-year-old guard Tyrese Martin could be assigned extra minutes, but will likely not factor into fantasy during tonight's tilt.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (foot) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's contest against the New Orleans Pelicans. He sat out the second leg of a back-to-back on Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks. Brooklyn will also have Cam Thomas (hamstring) back, meaning fewer minutes for Drake Powell, Nolan Traore, and Tyrese Martin. Powell started in Demin's spot on Monday and is poised to return to the second unit on Wednesday night. Demin could do significant damage against the Pelicans, who give up the second-most assists to point guards.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (foot) won't play in the second leg of a back-to-back on Monday night against the Dallas Mavericks. He's managing plantar fasciitis in his left foot and will sit out alongside Cam Thomas (hamstring). As a result, we will probably see a lot more Drake Powell and Tyrese Martin in Monday's game. Meanwhile, Michael Porter Jr. and Terance Mann will have more of the ball and are going to dictate the offense.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (back) won't play on Thursday against Houston. He had 23 points in Monday's loss to the Golden State Warriors. However, the rookie will sit this one out because of back soreness. With Michael Porter Jr. (illness) also sidelined, Noah Clowney, Danny Wolf, and Nicolas Claxton are all in line for more production. Cam Thomas, who has been limited since returning from a hamstring injury, should be considered the favorite to lead the team in scoring.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (foot) is not listed on the injury report for Monday's clash against the Charlotte Hornets. He sat out the second leg of a back-to-back on Saturday against the Milwaukee Bucks due to a foot problem. Tyrese Martin started in his spot, finishing with nine points and six rebounds in 24 minutes. Martin may retain his starting role on Monday because Terance Mann (ribs) might miss the game. In his last appearance against the Philadelphia 76ers, Demin had the best game of his young NBA career, scoring 23 points and recording nine rebounds, five assists, one steal, and two blocks. Monday could be another big night for him, as Charlotte allows the 10th-most fantasy points in the league to point guards.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (neck/jaw) will remain in the lineup on Sunday against the Toronto Raptors. He has been upgraded from probable to available ahead of tip-off. Demin has started each of the last seven games for Brooklyn, averaging 10.1 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 4.4 assists in 23.8 minutes. Demin's run as a starter includes a 16-point, five-assist effort in last week's meeting with the Raptors. Toronto plays at a much higher pace than Brooklyn, making this a favorable fantasy matchup for the Russian rookie.

Brooklyn Nets point guard Egor Demin (foot/rest) has been ruled out ahead of Monday night's matchup with the Houston Rockets. The rookie will be given the night off as the team plays its third game in four days, and he continues to recover from a plantar fascia tear suffered in July. Demin has averaged 22 minutes per game off the bench for Brookly, with the team utilizing the 6'9" playmaker in a variety of ways. Demin has averaged 8.7 points, five rebounds and 2.3 assists through his first three games. Demin's absence should benefit Ben Saraf who has been limited to just 17.7 MPG despite starting every contest this season.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) has been ruled out on Monday for the contest against the Houston Rockets. The team is holding him out due to injury management for his left foot. The rookie has been efficient so far shooting the ball, but has yet to register a single two-point field goal attempt. Through three appearances, he's averaging 8.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 2.3 turnovers across 22.0 minutes per game. While he watches from the sidelines on Monday, Tyrese Martin is likely to see some more minutes, while Tyson Etienne or Nolan Traore might be able to get into the game. All three aren't recommended as streaming options since they'll be further down the bench type of options.

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) will not be available for Friday's exhibition game against the Suns. Demin is dealing with a plantar fascia tear and has not been cleared for contact in practice. The No. 8 overall pick in the NBA Draft last year could be lined up for a big role with the Nets when he's healthy, but it isn't clear when he'll be ready to take the court. Earlier this week, General Manager Sean Marks said that the expectation is that Demin will be ready to go by opening night. For now, Ben Saraf and Nolan Traore should get more opportunities in the preseason. Saraf started the Nets' first exhibition game and will likely get the nod again on Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin (foot) has been "a little bit limited" with a plantar-fascia tear since after Summer League, according to general manager Sean Marks. Marks said that Demin "hasn't potentially had the summer that he would have loved." Marks and Demin said that the No. 8 overall pick in last year's NBA Draft is expected to be ready to go at the start of the season, and Demin said it's "not a big deal." Demin said the injury was not from a one-time event but was more a product of workload over time. Before missing some time at the end of summer league, the 19-year-old averaged 11.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, and a steal in three games while hitting 43.5% of his threes on 23 attempts. He will need to continue to build up physically before the start of the season, and he could be the Nets' starting point guard soon if he can overcome this foot issue.

Brooklyn Nets rookie point guard Egor Demin is expected to log heavy minutes in his first NBA season. Drafted eighth overall out of BYU, Demin enters training camp as the projected starter at point guard on a roster lacking an established floor general. While there will be competition from fringe starters, Demin's playmaking and high basketball IQ should give him the edge. The 6'8" guard set a BYU freshman record with 180 assists last season and brings rare size and versatility to the backcourt. His length and instincts allow him to defend multiple positions, which should help him earn early trust from the coaching staff. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should keep Demin on their radar, as his combination of minutes, playmaking, and defensive upside could make him a sneaky contributor right away.
