The Sacramento Kings and Charlotte Hornets close out their summer schedules with an NBA Summer League consolation contest on Friday night.

Coincidentally, each of these teams won the first game before dropping the last three. The Kings beat the Clippers, while the Hornets beat the Magic.

Kings vs. Hornets Key Player to Watch
Emanuel Sharp, Guard, Kings
With the seventh overall pick, Darius Acuff Jr., done for the summer, eyes turn to the Kings' second-round pick Emanuel Sharp.
The Houston product spent four years in college and is looking to transition to the pro game. He’s averaging 15.8 points on 39.5% shooting (36.4% from deep) through four games this summer.
Kings vs. Hornets Prediction and Pick
Both of these teams have played at least one extremely low-scoring game this summer, and I think that could be the case again tonight.
Neither team has anything to play for, obviously, and that could lead to a slower pace in the final game of the summer.
Pick: UNDER 183.5 (-110)
