You can’t tell just how good BYU is when it plays Central Arkansas, but you can tell that Egor Demin will make the Cougars appointment TV. 18, 11 assists, four rebounds, and three steals in his debut. A special talent.

Egor Demin’s first college basket comes on a stepback contested three pointer. The massive lead guard is one of the more unique prospects in this year’s class, and I could see him easily shooting into the early lottery if he does things like this consistently pic.twitter.com/Ha2798apFS

Egor Demin….insane

Best freshman debut I’ve seen this year and it isn’t close

One benefit of BYU playing on election night when few teams are playing is that Egor Demin is the talk of college basketball right now

I’ve seen enough Egor Demin is the best player in the country

The Jazz should forget about Cooper Flagg and just draft Egor Demin with the number 1 pick next year

Egor Demin is the biggest winner of opening week

Looks like an absolute demon

It’s never easy for an all-time recruit to live up to the hype in their first game…but Egor Demin has.

He has 13 points on 5/7 shooting, 6 assists, 3 rebounds, and 1 steal in the first half. He looks great.

Triple-double watch will be a regular thing for him.
