Projected NBA rookie role: Playmaking hub from the Point Forward

Projected NBA position: Point Forward

Projected Rookie Statline (Pts, Reb, Ast, Blk/Stl): 9, 3, 6, 1 (Stl)

Strengths: On Ball playmaking, Credit his time overseas and now with NBA level coach Kevin Young for Elite feel for the game, Great touch in the paint and around the rim, Elite playmaking vision and IQ

Weakness: Despite high steal averages, he has slower feet on defense and tends to get blown by somewhat often, slimmer frame exaggerates his lack of interior strength, Innefficaint 3 Point shooting as season progressed.

Shades of/comp: Tyrese Haliburton, Josh Giddey

Best outcome: If his shotmaking translates and his length produces solid defensive production, he projects to being one of the top guards in the league and potentially the best player out of this class, which truly does say a lot.

mid outcome: Theres a realistic scenario where we see Demin struggle defensively at the next level, in this case though we still see the fruits of his offensive output.

worst outcome: Like Harper, I see Demin as one of the safer high-end prospects in this class. But if his shot isnt consistent at the next level, that could raise some problems.

Egor is a great player and has shown some real bright moments so far this college season, I really like his game and hope he continues to improve on it. Averaging 13 6 and 5 as a PG seems very similar to Kaspras who is a great talent in this draft. He's been efficient also averaging 49% from the field showing he's capable of doing anything if he gets the appropriate game time to help improve over the course of his career. Hope he becomes a great guard to fulfil everyone's dream of being an all-star

Rating: B

Current Ranking: 6

Very big, long, athlete at 6'8". If he can become a more consistent scorer, he will be a top 5 pick. He is a good playmaker and defender, and he's crafty around the rim.

Shades of/comp:

Weird prospect. Vibes of a supertalent (great passing and IQ) but will probably end up as a connective piece. Still needs to round his game up on a lot of points. Might be better for him to comeback at BYU with AJ.

Prospect Tier: All-Star

Prospect Tags:

Strengths:

Elite playmaking. Vision & accuracy allow him to make passes very few can.

Has shown flashes of being an incredible downhill driver. His length & athleticism give him a reasonably high floor as a inside scorer

Weaknesses:

Will need to improve strength to become an average defender

Only shooting 28% on 4.6 3PA. Offensive ceiling will be limited by lack of a perimeter shot.
