AP Source: Hornets get Belinelli from Kings for No. 22 pick (The Associated Press)

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) -- A person familiar with the situation says the Charlotte Hornets have acquired shooting guard Marco Belinelli from the Sacramento Kings in exchange for the 22nd pick in the NBA draft.

The person spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday on condition of anonymity because the trade won't become official until after the NBA's new salary cap season begins on July 7. That means Charlotte will pick for Sacramento at No. 22.

The nine-year NBA veteran has played for six teams during his career, winning an NBA championship with the San Antonio Spurs in 2013-14.
