College career

Brooks, a small forward from Mississauga, Ontario, went to the University of Oregon after playing at Findlay Prep in Henderson, Nevada. As a freshman, he averaged 11.5 points per game and was named to the Pac-12 Conference all-freshman team.[1] As a sophomore, Brooks led the Ducks to the Pac-12 Conference regular season title and a top ten national ranking. At the close of the season, he was named first-team All-Pac-12[2] and a third-team All-American by the Sporting News. He was also named the District IX player of the year by the United States Basketball Writers Association (USBWA).[3] Brooks averaged 16.7 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game.[4]

After the conclusion of the 2015–16 season, Brooks said he would remain with Oregon for a third season.[5] He suffered a foot injury in the summer of 2016 and did not play in Oregon's offseason trip to Spain.[4] On November 7, 2016, Brooks was named to the Associated Press' preseason All-America team.[6] During his three seasons of college career Brooks averaged 14.8 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 28.9 minutes per game.[7]

Shortly after the 2016–17 season, he declared himself eligible for the 2017 NBA draft and hired an agent, ending his college career.[8]

Professional career

Memphis Grizzlies (2017–present)

Brooks was drafted by the Houston Rockets with the 45th pick in the 2017 NBA draft and then was immediately traded to the Memphis Grizzlies.[9] On July 21, 2017, the Grizzlies signed Brooks to his rookie scale contract.[10] On October 18, 2017, during the Grizzlies' season opener, Brooks scored 19 points, the most points scored by a Canadian-born player in an NBA debut.[11]

On April 11, 2018, Brooks scored a career-high 36 points along with seven rebounds, one assist, and two steals in a 137–123 loss against the Oklahoma City Thunder.[12] In December 2018, Brooks was thought to be involved in a failed three-way trade between Memphis, the Washington Wizards and the Phoenix Suns; the trade faltered over confusion between Brooks and his similarly-named teammate, MarShon Brooks,[13] as the Memphis front office did not intend to trade Dillon while the other teams expected him and not MarShon.

On January 5, 2019, Brooks suffered from a ruptured ligament in his right big toe[14] and underwent a successful surgery to repair it on January 11, 2019. Brooks missed the remainder of the 2018–19 season.[15]

Brooks began the 2019–20 season as the Grizzlies' starting shooting guard. After averaging 16.1 points per game over the first half of the season, on February 5, 2020, he signed a three-year, $35 million extension with the Grizzlies.[16]

On February 28, 2020, Brooks scored a season-high 32 points, along with getting two rebounds, one assist and one block in a 104–101 loss against the Sacramento Kings.[17]

On May 23, 2021, Brooks made his NBA playoff debut, scoring a season-high 31 points, along with 7 rebounds, to help the Grizzlies to a 112–109 Game 1 victory over the top-seeded Utah Jazz.[18] The Grizzlies would go on to get eliminated and lose the series in five games.[19]

On October 12, 2021, it was announced that Brooks would miss two to three weeks due to a fracture in his left hand.[20] On December 19, he scored a career high 37 points in a 105–100 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.[21] On January 8, 2022, during a 123–108 win over the Los Angeles Clippers, Brooks suffered a left ankle injury. The next day, he was ruled out for 3-to-5 weeks with injury, which was diagnosed as an ankle sprain.[22] On April 16, during Game 1 of the first round of the playoffs, Brooks scored 24 points in a 117–130 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.[23]

In Game 2 of the 2022 Western Conference semifinals against the Golden State Warriors, Brooks was assessed a flagrant 2 and ejected after he chased down the Warriors' Gary Payton II and hit him in the head when he was in the air, going up for a fast-break layup; Payton fell hard and fractured his left elbow.[24] Brooks was suspended for Game 3 of the series.[25]

National team career

On May 24, 2022, Brooks agreed to a three-year commitment to play with the Canadian senior men's national team.[26]
