He was selected by Brooklyn Nets as the 10th overall choice in the 2008 NBA Draft. He made his debut in a 95-85 win against the Washington Wizards on October 29, 2008, where he came off the bench for 8 points, 8 rebounds, and 2 blocks in 25 minutes. He had a hugely impressive rookie season as he finished third in the NBA rookie of the Year voting and was named to the NBA All-Rookie first team, The Nets, however, had a disappointing season and failed to qualify for the playoffs.

In 2013, he was selected to play in the 2013 NBA All-Star Game replacing an injured Rajon Rondo. Lopez was a constant force for the Nets and played for them for 9 years before being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2017 offseason. Lopez is one of the only two players to score 10,000 points for the Nets (besides Buck Williams). He became the Nets' all-time leading scorer at the end of the 2016-17 Season.

He is currently on a contract with the Milwaukee Bucks, a 4-year, $52 million deal. Lopez is a fantastic defender as well. He has had a fantastic year thus far and has the most blocks per game in the league. Thus, the Bucks beat the Suns in a six-match game and won the championship, which was the first for Brook.
