Egor Demin injury update deals Nets another blow amid winless start

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Demin will be reevaluated in one week after being diagnosed with a right leg bone bruise, the team announced Thursday. Demin exited with the injury during the second quarter of Tuesday’s loss to the Boston Celtics and did not return. He said postgame that the injury was “nothing serious.” “I’ll be good. It’s nothing serious. I’ll be ready to go,” Demin told reporters. “I just got hit, got kneed in kind of like a muscle, bone area… Now it feels better than it did right away.
