The Brooklyn Nets faced a challenging start to the Las Vegas Summer League, suffering defeats against both the Oklahoma City Thunder and the Washington Wizards. Despite a strong showing from Drew Timme, who scored 30 points against the Wizards, the team fell short with a final score of 102-96. Brooklyn's free-throw shooting at a mere 53.3% played a significant role in their struggles, as they failed to capitalize on scoring opportunities.

Tyson Etienne contributed with 15 points, demonstrating his shooting prowess. The Nets also grappled with defending against Tre Johnson, the Wizards' top draft pick, who managed to put up 21 points. As the Nets now sit at 0-2, player performances such as Timme's will be critical moving forward.
