Israel-Born Emanuel Sharp Signs Three-Year Kings Deal

Published

Emanuel Sharp | Guard | Sacramento Kings

Israel-born guard Emanuel Sharp signed a reported three-year, $6.35 million contract with the Sacramento Kings one week after being selected 45th in the 2026 NBA Draft. NBA.com lists Sharp on Sacramento's roster with Israel as his country and Houston as his last team, while official Kings and Houston pages confirm the draft selection. The first two years are fully guaranteed and the third is a team option. He is Derrick Sharp's son, played for Israel's under-16 national team and joins a growing Israeli presence in the NBA. It is a modest but bright Jewish and Israeli sports pride story on a global stage.
