Nets draft UCLA star Tyler Bilodeau to add offensive upside
June 25, 2026

The Nets took UCLA senior forward Tyler Bilodeau with the 43rd pick in the 2026 NBA Draft on Wednesday night, adding one of the best shooters in the class.
Bilodeau hit 46 percent from 3-point range last season for the Bruins, and he’ll help provide some spacing for Brooklyn.
At 6-foot-8 ½ and 228 pounds — with over a seven-foot wingspan — his combination of size and shooting could prove useful.
Granted, at 22 years old, he’s one of the older players in the class and may have limited upside.
He’s not overly explosive on either end of the floor, and won’t protect the rim or be disruptive defensively.
