Saka downs Atletico to send Arsenal into Champions League final
Arsenal defeats Atletico Madrid to reach Champions League final for the first time in 20 years!
Brooklyn Nets rookie Egor Demin may miss the Las Vegas Summer League due to plantar fasciitis. He indicated that his participation depends on the team's medical staff's decision.
Brooklyn Nets rookie guard Egor Demin had a solid rookie season for the Nets as he was able to calm some of the concerns surrounding his three-point shooting and whether that would translate to the NBA. However, Brooklyn wasn't able to get a full season out of Demin as he suffered plantar fasciitis in his left foot and it's possible he may not be ready to play for the Las Vegas Summer League.
"We'll see if I play Summer League," Demin said a recent livestream after being asked by Nets fans if he would be able to play in either of the Summer Leagues. Not only are the Nets playing in the Las Vegas Summer League like every other NBA team, but they will also be playing in the California Classic Summer League that occurs prior to the Las Vegas event.
Demin's statement over whether he'll playing in either of the summer leagues had some fans concerned that he was sitting out for reasons other than those related to his recovery from his plantar fasciitis. Demin clarified that whether he plays in the summer or not will not be entirely up to him as he seems to imply that Brooklyn's medical staff could be a factor in the decision as well.
When the Nets announced in early March that they ruled out Demin for the rest of the season, the press release mentioned that the team is expecting Demin "to return to basketball activity early in the offseason and be a full participant in the summer development program." This statement could mean that Demin should be healthy enough to play in the summer leagues, but there is plenty of time between now and July when those events take place.
Demin, 20, finished the 2025-26 season with averages of 10.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game while shooting 39.9% from the field and 38.5% from behind the three-point line in 52 appearances. Demin said during his exit interview that he is looking forward to this summer given that he knows where he'll be next season and that he also wants to improve as a player once his plantar fasciitis subsides.
