2025 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
Signed a two-year, $2.8 million contract with the Kings in February of 2024. Contract includes $2.3 million team option for 2025-26. Kings exercised their $2.3 million team option in Ellis' contract for the 2025-26 campaign in June of 2025 
Not listed on injury report
Ellis (thumb) isn't listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.
ANALYSIS
Ellis sustained a left thumb injury in Sunday's loss to Milwaukee but is set to play Tuesday. In his three outings prior to Sunday's contest, the 25-year-old guard averaged 10.7 points and 2.3 rebounds in 26.7 minutes per game. However, he'll likely see a decline in playing time with Zach LaVine back in action.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Attractive trade option
Ellis is considered a "hot commodity" due to his low-cost contract and plug-and-play defensive value, Sam Amick of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
According to Amick, rival teams view Ellis as an attractive deadline target given Sacramento's openness to discussions. Plus, his affordability stands in sharp contrast to the Kings' higher-priced veterans -- it's no secret that Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, Malik Monk and Domantas Sabonis are on the trade block. Ellis has been in and out of the rotation this season, so it's not a surprise to see teams doing their due diligence on him.
