Brooklyn Nets Nets second-rounder Tyler Bilodeau out to prove he’s more than a one-trick pony By Brian Lewis Published July 9, 2026, 9:21 p.m. ET Tyler Bilodeau goes up for a shot during the Nets' Summer League win over the Warriors on July 6, 2026 in Sacramento, Calif. NBAE via Getty Images LAS VEGAS — Tyler Bilodeau may be a one-trick pony, but that trick is the most important in basketball: shooting.
Proving he can do anything else will be the key to the Nets rookie sticking around in the NBA.
Learn Brooklyn’s system. Defend, at least as well as his physical limitations allow. Find other ways to contribute when the shot doesn’t fall.
That’s what Bilodeau has to show Nets Summer League coach Dutch Gaitley. Manage any of those and the second-round pick could beat the odds.
