Egor Demin opened up on what position he views himself playing with the Nets following his Summer League debut.
A ground stop was issued at Chicago O'Hare International Airport just before 7 a.m. due to thunderstorms. It has been lifted but O'Hare is still reporting departure delays averaging about an hour as of 8:40 a.m.
The Nets surprised many when they took Demin with the No. 8 overall pick, betting on his size and long-term upside at the point guard position. On Thursday night in Las Vegas, fans finally got their first look at the 6-foot-9 Russian guard as he suited up for his Summer League debut against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
Frenzy became bedlam on the next play. Flagg talked trash to James, ran to his spot on the left wing, pivoted off the catch and nailed the shot before turning to exult with his future Mavericks varsity teammates, who cheered him on decked out in casual wear from their courtside seats.
