The Brooklyn Nets are definitely a team in development, hoping to turn their young players into future All-Stars who can dominate the league.
Right now, there is a lot of youthful potential on the team, and multiple players are trying new things.
One of them, Egor Demin, is doing something no one else has.
Writing on social media, Ben Anderson notified fans of Demin’s very unique approach to the game.
“Egor Demin is the only player in NBA history whose first 20 field goal attempts of his career were threes, without attempting a single two-point FG. He’s taken 22 shots over four games, all of them have been from downtown,” Anderson posted on X.

So far this season, the 19-year-old rookie has an average of 7.5 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.5 assists on 40.9 percent from the three-point line.
He’s played for an average of 20.5 minutes per game and has tried to make the most out of every second.
Shooting only three is a very interesting style, but Brooklyn’s coaching staff is obviously okay with what Demin is doing.
But as the weeks go on, fans can be sure that Demin will try to add some variety to his game.
It hasn’t been smooth sailing for the Nets so far, and they currently hold a 0-4 record.
No one thought they’d have a great season this year, but people still want to see the Nets turn things around and score some wins.
However, the most important thing is that they build the foundation for a bright future.
Demin’s insistence on three-pointers might confuse some, but it could help him become better at shooting from distance, which might work wonders for the Nets.
