Egor Dëmin thought he’d need a couple of days. The Nets will be without him for at least four games. On his bone bruise, another backcourt adjustment and Brooklyn picking up options on all five 2025 first-rounders. nydailynews.com/2026/10/29/n…

The Nets have exercised their third-year team options on Egor Demin, Nolan Traore, Drake Powell, Ben Saraf and Danny Wolf.

From @BKN_NETSPR: Egor Dëmin has been diagnosed with a right leg bone bruise after sustaining the injury during Tuesday night’s game at Boston. Dëmin will be reevaluated in one week.

Mikel Brown Jr. went from struggling early to nearly saving the Nets’ night, only to watch it unravel in the final seconds against Boston. But his breakthrough left something worth remembering beyond the heartbreak. nydailynews.com/2026/10/28/m…

Egor Dëmin doesn’t expect the right-leg injury that knocked him out of Tuesday’s game against the Boston Celtics to keep him sidelined for long. nydailynews.com/2026/10/28/n…

The rookie speaks.

The Nets waited until Game 8 for their first win last season. Jordi Fernández's faith in Nolan Traoré and Mikel Brown Jr. nearly ended this year's wait in Game 4. Instead, a costly final mistake gave Jayson Tatum the last word. nydailynews.com/2026/10/27/n…

Jayson Tatum at the buzzer. Unbelievable. The Nets had the ball and a one-point lead with 6.1 seconds left in overtime, but MBJ attempted a layup instead of forcing Boston to foul. The miss gave Tatum one last chance, and he made them pay. Brooklyn falls to 0-4. Just a brutal loss.

Fernández trusted Brown in crunch time despite his early struggles.

Mikel Brown Jr. are you kidding me?! The rookie drills a corner 3 to tie the game at 117 in the final seconds. He started 0-of-6 tonight. Now he's hit THREE massive fourth-quarter 3s to keep Brooklyn alive. Unbelievable.

Boston closes the third quarter on a 16-5 run after Brooklyn controlled much of the first half. The Nets' offense has lost its rhythm. Turnovers have crept back in. The Celtics have finally started knocking down 3s. Big test of Brooklyn's composure entering the fourth.

Egor Dëmin is out for the remainder of tonight’s game due to a right leg contusion. Hate to see it.

Nets lead Boston 61-56 at halftime. Jordi Fernández's rotation adjustments have paid off. Brooklyn's bench has outscored Boston's 28-11, led by Chaney Johnson (12) and Moe Wagner (11). Nolan Traoré has 10 points in his first start. Celtics are just 2-of-16 from deep.

Nolan Traoré is making an immediate impact in his first start of the season. Seven points on 3-of-3 shooting in six minutes. Brooklyn's offense has looked noticeably more organized with him directing it. Early returns on Jordi Fernández's lineup change are promising.

Jordi Fernández on Brooklyn's 0-3 start: "Your offense can help your defense, but your offense can hurt your defense and vice versa." Pointed to poor shot selection, turnovers and missed layups as factors contributing to the Nets' defensive struggles.
