The Brooklyn Nets have reached a two-way agreement with second-round pick Tyler Bilodeau, league sources told HoopsHype on Wednesday night.
Bilodeau, a 6-foot-9 forward out of UCLA taken with the 43rd overall selection, enters the NBA regarded as one of the draft’s elite perimeter shooters. The senior averaged 17.6 points, shot 51.8% from the field and converted 46.4% of his three-point attempts last season.
Brooklyn also secured two Exhibit 10 deals. Undrafted Illinois forward Ben Humrichous, listed at 6-foot-9, joins the roster after averaging 5.8 points and 3.9 rebounds in 22.5 minutes while helping the Illini reach the Final Four. Draft Express reported that Humrichous impressed teams during pre-draft workouts.
In addition, 6-foot-3 guard Dion Brown signed an Exhibit 10 contract. The St. Louis senior, who previously suited up for UMBC and Boston College, posted 11.3 points and 5.4 rebounds this past season with the Billikens.
The moves fill out Brooklyn’s off-season development pipeline, giving the organization one two-way player and two candidates for possible G League assignments when training camp opens.
