Ellis provided 12 points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds, one assist, five blocks and two steals in 33 minutes during Monday's 130-129 loss to Denver. Ellis stepped up in a big way with the Kings missing both Kevin Huerter (shoulder) and Keegan Murray (ankle), recording a career-high five blocks. He's very strong on the defensive end in that regard, as this was his fifth career game with at least three blocks. On the season, Ellis is just outside the top 150 in nine-category formats for per-game value, posting averages of 6.6 points, 2.2 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 1.2 steals, 1.0 blocks and 1.3 three-pointers.

Ellis notched five points (2-3 FG, 1-2 3Pt), three rebounds, five assists and three steals over 16 minutes during Sunday's 141-97 win over the Jazz. Ellis finished one theft short of his career-high mark of four steals. His role and production are trending in the wrong direction to start December, as he's averaging 4.0 points, 2.0 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.8 steals in 14.0 minutes over his last four games.

Ellis (leg) has returned to Monday's game against the Thunder with 1:37 remaining in the third quarter, Rylan Stiles of FanSided.com reports. Ellis checked back into the game nearing the end of the third quarter after a brief exit, during which he limped back to the locker room. The 24-year-old guard started for just the second time this season Monday, and he should be able to shoulder his normal workload the rest of the way.

Ellis (leg) went back to the locker room in Monday's game against the Thunder, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports. Ellis came up limping and went straight back to the bench before heading to the locker room with 4:36 remaining in the third quarter. The 24-year-old guard started for just the second time of the season Monday, and if he is unable to return, Kevin Huerter will likely see an uptick in playing time the rest of the way.

Ellis will enter the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Thunder, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. In a last-minute lineup change, Kevin Huerter will retreat to the bench in favor of Ellis.
