Ellis accumulated seven points (3-7 FG, 1-3 3Pt), two rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals across 34 minutes during Wednesday's 110-103 loss to the Hornets.
With Brooklyn opting to ease rookie first-rounder Mikel Brown into the NBA fray, Ellis is operating as the team's starting shooting guard in the interim. Given Wednesday's workload, Ellis is worth keeping tabs on in fantasy leagues for his ability to supply treys and steals when given significant minutes.
