Both teams made it here by going a perfect 5-0 so far during Summer League, but only one will remain undefeated and raise the trophy at the end of the night.
Sacramento took down Toronto 98-88 in the semifinals as second-year player Isaac Jones put the team on his back with 36 points on 13-17 shooting from the field. Just played less than 8 minutes per game as a rookie, but his Summer League play may have earned him some more minutes in the Kings rotation this upcoming NBA season.
Kon Knueppel, the Hornets’ lottery pick during the 2025 draft, followed up a 19-point game against San Antonio with a 17-point night to beat the Thunder in the semifinals. Charlotte has high hopes for the Duke product, and he is already showing that he can elevate those around him and play multiple different roles on the court.
This is a great NBA Summer League matchup; make sure to tune in and catch all the action.
