Egor Dëmin Progresses from Leg Injury, Eyeing Return on Nets' Road Trip

Brooklyn Nets guard Egor Dëmin is progressing well from a right leg bone bruise sustained on Oct. 27 against the Boston Celtics. Although Dëmin has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks—marking his sixth consecutive missed game—head coach Jordi Fernández confirmed the young guard is back doing work on the court. The Nets plan to reevaluate Dëmin following Sunday's contest and have left open the possibility of him returning during their current four-game road trip.
