Keon Ellis Latest News
Available to play Sunday
Ellis (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Wizards, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports. Ellis was listed as questionable due to a nagging ankle problem, but he'll give it a go Sunday and should see steady minutes off the bench. The former Alabama standout has started in six of his eight appearances this month, averaging 11.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 28.8 minutes per game.
Officially questionable for Sunday
Ellis (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Wizards. The questionable tag was always the expectation for Ellis, who practiced Saturday and has a shot at being available for this matchup against Washington. Ellis exited Thursday's game versus the Rockets early due to an ankle injury, and a decision on his status will be made closer to Sunday's 9 p.m. ET tipoff.
Practices Saturday, iffy for Sunday
Ellis (ankle) fully participated in Saturday's practice and will be listed as Sunday's game versus the Wizards, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. Ellis exited Thursday's game versus the Rockets early due to an ankle injury. However, the 24-year-old guard appears to have avoided a serious injury and could return to action as soon as Sunday's matchup with Washington.
Won't return Thursday
Ellis (ankle) won't return to Thursday's game against the Rockets, Matt George of ABC 10 Sacramento reports. Ellis went to the locker room during the third quarter of Thursday's game with an apparent right ankle injury after stepping on Domantas Sabonis' foot. The Kings have been quick to rule him out from returning, and further tests will likely be needed to determine the severity of the injury.
Heads to locker room
Ellis went to the locker room during the third quarter of Thursday's game against the Rockets with an apparent right ankle injury, Jason Anderson of The Sacramento Bee reports. Ellis went down and appeared to be in a lot of pain after stepping on Domantas Sabonis' foot, which led him to roll his right ankle. It's unclear if the former Alabama standout will be able to return to the contest.
Returning to bench role
Ellis isn't starting Thursday's game against the Rockets, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports. Ellis is coming off an impressive 18-point performance Tuesday against the Bucks, but he'll revert to a bench role Thursday following the return of Malik Monk (groin). Ellis has been held to single figures in the scoring column in six of his last seven appearances as a reserve.
Logs 18 points with first unit
Ellis chipped in 18 points (5-11 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal over 31 minutes during Tuesday's 130-115 loss to the Bucks. Ellis' perimeter game was on point Tuesday, with five three-pointers in eight attempts beyond the arc. Although Malik Monk (groin) has cemented his first-unit role, Ellis got a chance to shine during his teammate's absence. Ellis has also played as a replacement for De'Aaron Fox, making Ellis the team's top second-unit option in the backcourt.
Getting starting nod
Ellis is in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Bucks, Chris Biderman of The Sacramento Bee reports. Ellis will replace Malik Monk (groin) in the starting lineup Tuesday. Ellis is averaging 9.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 steals and 2.2 assists in 30.1 minutes during his other nine starting appearances this season.
Leads bench in scoring in victory
Ellis supplied eight points (3-5 FG, 2-4 3Pt), two rebounds and one steal in 20 minutes during Sunday's 124-119 win over the Bulls. Ellis was back on the Kings bench Sunday due to the return of De'Aaron Fox (hip), leading all second-unit players in scoring during a bench-leading minute total in a winning effort. Ellis has provided a nice lift to Sacramento as of late, posting at least eight points in four of his last five contests and in 16 outings so far this season.
