Kings' Keon Ellis: Muted role continues
Ellis racked up six points (2-4 FG, 2-3 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 20 minutes during Friday's 112-93 loss to Boston.
Ellis continues to play a muted role on a Sacramento team with seemingly nothing to play for. Although his per-minute production has been adequate, the simple fact is that Ellis just isn't seeing enough court time to have any sustainable value. In four games over the past week, he has averaged 8.3 points and 2.0 three-pointers in 20.8 minutes per game.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Notches 14 points in loss
Ellis ended Sunday's 139-116 loss to the Pistons with 14 points (5-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT) across 21 minutes.
Ellis picked up a handful of minutes in garbage time due to the lopsided score. The defensive specialist has been used sparingly by the Kings this season, and that has resulted in his name appearing in the rumor mill numerous times ahead of the trade deadline.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Fades injury report
Ellis (knee) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Heat.
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 (knee) is out for Sunday's game against Portland.
Ellis will miss a second consecutive matchup while nursing left knee soreness. He hasn't been all that involved in the rotation of late, but Nique Clifford could pick up a few extra minutes Sunday in Ellis' absence.

Ellis (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Wizards.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Coming off bench Sunday
Ellis is not in the Kings' starting lineup against the Rockets on Sunday, Lachard Binkley of SI.com reports.
Ellis started in Friday's loss to the Warriors, though he logged just five points, two rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block over 25 minutes. He'll revert to a bench role Sunday while Precious Achiuwa enters the Kings' starting five.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Starting Friday
Ellis will start against the Warriors on Friday, Brenden Nunes of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.
Ellis will get the starting nod against Golden State after coming off the bench in each of the Kings' last five games. As a result, Precious Achiuwa will slide to the second unit. Ellis has started four games so far this season, during which he has averaged 7.8 points and 1.3 steals in 21.8 minutes per contest.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Not listed on injury report
Ellis (thumb) isn't listed on the injury report for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.
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.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Won't return vs. Milwaukee
Ellis won't return to Sunday's game against the Bucks due to a left thumb injury, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
Ellis logged just five minutes before picking up the thumb injury, and he'll finish with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and two rebounds. His next opportunity to suit up will come Tuesday against Dallas.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Moving to bench Tuesday
Ellis won't start against the Clippers on Tuesday, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports.
With Keegan Murray (calf) returning to action, Ellis will slide to the second unit. In eight appearances off the bench this month, the 25-year-old has averaged 3.0 points, 1.4 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 16.3 minutes per contest.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Scores season-high 21 points
Ellis registered 21 points (8-15 FG, 5-10 3Pt), one rebound, two blocks and three steals in 32 minutes during Saturday's 113-107 win over the Mavericks.
Ellis moved into the starting lineup for just the third time this season, casually dropping a season-high 21 points, including five three-pointers. While this was certainly an encouraging performance, it should be noted that Ellis had played a total of just 23 minutes in the previous three games, failing to score in all three. Managers could consider grabbing him in case this role sticks moving forward, while still keeping in mind he plays for Sacramento, where apparently, no one's role is safe.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Confirmed as starter
Ellis is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Mavericks, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.
The former Alabama standout will move to the starting lineup due to the absence of Keegan Murray (calf). Ellis has been struggling of late, making just 22.9 percent of his shots while averaging 14.3 minutes per game in his last 10 appearances. This will be his third start of the campaign.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Expected to start sans Murray
Ellis is expected to start Saturday's game against the Mavericks, Sean Cunningham of Fox 40 Sacramento reports.
With Keegan Murray (calf) out for at least one week, Ellis is expected to join the first unit for the first time since Nov. 16. The 25-year-old has seen inconsistent playing time of late, averaging 3.6 points, 2.0 steals, 1.8 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 17.2 minutes per contest over his last five appearances. He has shot just 26.1 percent from the field on 4.6 attempts per game during that span.

Kings' Keon Ellis: Held to nine minutes
Ellis produced zero points (0-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one block across nine minutes during Sunday's 125-124 overtime victory over the Rockets.
After playing above 30 minutes Dec. 11 and Dec. 18, Ellis has now seen 10 or fewer minutes in two straight games. With such a volatile role, he remains off the fantasy radar in standard formats. A change of scenery could do him some good at this point.
