LAS VEGAS — The Brooklyn Nets were disappointed by their Las Vegas Summer League debut on Thursday when they lost to the Oklahoma City Thunder in what was a winnable game for the Nets. Brooklyn had the chance to redeem themselves with a matchup against Tre Johnson and the Washington Wizards on Sunday, but the Nets weren’t able to come out on top despite some solid performances.

The Nets lost to the Wizards on Sunday 102-96 despite center Drew Timme going off for 30 points, five rebounds, and three assists while guard Tyson Etienne had 15 points and three assists. Part of the reason for the loss was Brooklyn being unable to contain Tre Johnson, the sixth overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, as he dropped 21 points and three rebounds.

Ultimately, the Nets were pretty much in lockstep with the Wizards in terms of the general statistical categories, but Brooklyn shooting just 53.3% from the free-throw line didn’t help matters. With that being said, the Nets are now 0-2 in Las Vegas with three games to go so here are the Nets player grades following Sunday’s loss to the Wizards:

Egor Demin: C+

Demin did not shoot the ball well in this one, but the good news is that he’s keeping the confidence to continue taking shots, even if they aren’t falling on a regular basis. Demin shot 10 three-pointers and while he was just 4-for-10 from that range, his shooting will be tested during the season so he has to start getting used to the high volume. Demin finished with a solid overall line of 12 points, four rebounds, and four assists.

Tyson Etienne: B+

Etienne had one of the best performances on the team as he caught fire from behind the three-point line and didn’t mind getting 12 attempts up over the course of the game, either. Etienne has already earned one of the three Two-Way spots on the team so at this point, he is looking to work on the weaknesses of his game and provide veteran leadership to the younger players on the roster.

TJ Bamba: C-

Bamba drew the start in the wake of the Nets electing to bring Nolan Traore off the bench and not play with three point guards on the floor at the same time within the starting lineup. Bamba did not shoot the ball well, but he provided strong defense while making plenty of effort plays that Brooklyn benefitted from over the course of what was a tightly-contested game.

Danny Wolf: A

Wolf had the kind of bounceback performance that he was hoping for after Thursday’s rough outing in the loss to the Thunder. Wolf stuffed the stat sheet in every way possible against the Wizards as he was efficient shooting the ball from long range while being all over the boards. In addition to that, Wolf was a menace on the defensive end of the floor as he totaled three steals and four blocks.

Drew Timme: A+

Timme had the kind of outing in this one that might show that he doesn’t need anything out of Summer League other than to just pad his stats. Timme had another standout performance as he used impressive footwork to score on whoever was guarding him, even Wizards forward Alex Sarr, who had his own version of a block party as well.

Nolan Traore: B-

Traore surprisingly didn’t start in this one and while he did tweak his ankle in Thursday’s loss to the Thunder, he looked fine against Washington and was a blur with the ball in his hands like usual. Traore did not have the kind of efficient outing that he had in his Summer League debut as he struggled to finish over the likes of Sarr as he was waiting at the rim the entire game.

Ben Saraf: B-

Saraf got the chance to have the ball in his hands more than he did on Thursday and the results were up and down throughout the game. Saraf had some nice moments getting to the rim and setting up his teammates with some helpful assists, but he also had some instances where Washington’s ball pressure was too much for him to handle.
