Deividas Dulkys (born 12 March 1988) is a Lithuanian professional basketball coach and former player who serves as an assistant coach for the Brooklyn Nets of the National Basketball Association (NBA). During his playing career he was a swingman.

College career

He also played for the Branch West All-Star AAU. In April 2007 he committed to Florida State University of the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Over four seasons he played 131 career games, second most in Florida State history, and the Seminoles reached the NCAA tournament each year, advancing to the Sweet Sixteen in 2011. Dulkys was part of the first Florida State team to win the ACC tournament, in his senior season of 2012. He finished his collegiate career with 203 three-pointers, including a school-record eight against North Carolina on ESPN College GameDay on 14 January 2012.

Professional career

After going undrafted in the 2012 NBA draft, Dulkys returned to Lithuania and signed a multi-year contract with Lietuvos rytas Vilnius of the LKL and VTB United League in July 2012. He began the season with the club in the EuroLeague, but was loaned to Latvian team Barons Riga for the remainder of the season to gain more playing time, having struggled to readapt after years of American basketball. For 2013–14 he was loaned from the start to Polish side Anwil Włocławek of the Tauron Basket Liga, where he was named best player in the league for February 2014 and participated in an All Star Game against Czech League players that same month.

Days later, Lietuvos rytas re-loaned him to Turkish club Tofaş for the rest of the season after buying out Anwil's contract; he averaged 11.4 points on 54.5 percent three-point shooting in ten games as Tofaş reached the Turkish Basketball League quarter-finals. In July 2014 he joined Italian Serie A team Umana Reyer Venezia. He signed with Yeşilgiresun Belediye of the Turkish Basketball League for 2015–16. On 11 October 2016 he signed with Rio Natura Monbus Obradoiro, then after a season in the Liga ACB he joined the Golden State Warriors for the 2017 NBA Summer League.

In August 2017 he signed with İstanbul BB, but his season was shortened by injury. On 4 August 2018 he signed with Polish club Asseco Gdynia. On 13 September 2019 he signed with Baxi Manresa of the Liga ACB, extending his contract on 24 December, and returned to Manresa on 13 November 2020.
