26-Year-Old GuardG
Sacramento Kings
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Ellis had a terrific third NBA campaign with the Kings in 2024-25. He ended up with 80 regular-season appearances (28 starts), posting averages of 8.2 points, 1.5 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.5 steals, 0.8 blocks and 1.7 three-pointers on 48.9 percent shooting from the field. In just 24.4 minutes per contest, Ellis produced a ninth-round finish in standard nine-category leagues on a per-game basis. The Kings didn't make a ton of noise in the offseason despite some changes in the front office. DeMar DeRozan and Malik Monk were rumored to be on the trade block, but nothing came to fruition. Sacramento's big addition was presumed starting point guard Dennis Schroder, and the club also signed Russell Westbrook ahead of the regular season. The backcourt is certainly crowded when you throw Zach LaVine and Devin Carter into the mix, but Ellis certainly proved his worth in 2024-25 and has the talent to carve out a sizable role. With elite steal and block rates, Ellis has intrigue, but his ceiling just won't be that high until the Kings clear up this logjam in the backcourt. Read Past Outlooks

Fades injury report
GSacramento Kings
January 19, 2026
Ellis (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Ellis has missed the Kings' last two games due to left knee soreness, but his absence from the injury report indicates that he'll be available against Miami on Tuesday. He saw his minutes fluctuate prior to his injury, but his return would likely result in fewer minutes being available for Nique Clifford and Malik Monk.

Ellis has emerged as a potential sweetener in Jonathan Kuminga trade discussions between the Warriors and Kings, ESPN's Shams Charania reports.
ANALYSIS
Golden State values Ellis' cheap expiring contract as it seeks financial flexibility. His inclusion could help offset Sacramento's longer-term salary commitments in negotiations, such as Malik Monk. Ellis still seems to have a lot of suitors around the NBA despite a frustrating season in Sacramento.
