Emanuel Sharp Joins Darius Acuff Jr. in Kings Backcourt
After landing Darius Acuff Jr. in the first round, the Sacramento Kings added shooting around their new lead guard, taking Houston's Emanuel Sharp with the 45th pick in the 2026 NBA Draft. Houston's all-time leading three-point shooter averaged 15.5 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.2 steals on 41.3 percent shooting and 37.2 percent from deep as a senior, drilling 2.6 threes a night. Sharp is an undersized but knockdown 3-and-D guard who moves well off the ball and rarely turns it over. Unlike most second-round shooters buried on contenders, he lands on a rebuilding team actively clearing its veteran guards, so a rotation role is in reach if the shooting carries over. He won't help fantasy managers right away, but the fit next to Acuff makes him a name worth tracking.
