Keon Ellis Fantasy Stats

Cleveland Cavaliers guards Dennis Schroder and Keon Ellis will be available for Wednesday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Cavalliers haven't included them on the injury report. The two were traded to Cleveland by the Sacramento Kings over the weekend and will make their Cavaliers debuts. Schroder and Ellis will continue as backups in Ohio, though they could have larger roles on Wednesday, depending on James Harden's (personal) status. Even as a reserve, Schroder could offer decent fantasy value, but Ellis shouldn't be on fantasy radars.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Keon Ellis is expected to meet the team in Los Angeles and could be available Wednesday against the Clippers alongside fellow newcomer Dennis Schroder. Both guards arrived from Sacramento in a multi-team deal and step into a crowded backcourt rotation. Schroder brings on-ball creation after averaging 12.8 points and 5.3 assists this season, while Ellis profiles as a defensive wing who averaged 5.6 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.1 steals in limited minutes. If Darius Garland (toe) remains out, Schroder has short-term assist-streamer appeal, while Ellis is a deep-league steals option. Donovan Mitchell, Jaylon Tyson, and Sam Merrill still anchor the minutes.

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Cleveland Cavaliers acquired guard Keon Ellis from the Sacramento Kings in exchange for forward De'Andre Hunter, with Dennis Schroder also heading to Cleveland as part of the deal. Ellis struggled to find consistent opportunities in Sacramento, where a crowded backcourt kept him on the fringe of the rotation. Cleveland values his point-of-attack defense, but his fantasy outlook remains shaky given the Cavaliers' guard and wing depth. If Darius Garland (toe) continues to miss time, Ellis could see spot minutes, though Sam Merrill and Jaylon Tyson are already holding steady roles, limiting Ellis to deep-league consideration.

Sacramento Kings guard Keon Ellis (knee) won't be in action on Friday night against the Washington Wizards. Ellis was a late addition to the injury report due to a knee problem, and the team has downgraded his status from questionable to out. It has been a frustrating season for Ellis, who has had an inconsistent role with the Kings. After logging 20-plus minutes regularly at the start of the month, Ellis was limited to only five minutes in Wednesday's win over the New York Knicks. Dennis Schroder is set to return from his suspension on Friday and will take Ellis's spot in the rotation.

Sacramento Kings guard Keon Ellis (shoulder) is officially available to play on Wednesday evening against the Chicago Bulls. There was some concern over his status due to a nagging left shoulder injury and the timing of the second half of a back-to-back slate. Sacramento will have Ellis suiting up and hoping to build off his best performance of the season last night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 25-year-old currently averages 7.8 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 2.0 steals per game in 19 minutes coming off the bench. Kings coach Doug Christie is still figuring out his rotation with a lot of talent on the roster to limit his ceiling. Ellis does still provide some value for a bench player, especially via his steals since only seven players currently average more than him.

Sacramento Kings guard Keon Ellis (hand) will be in action on Monday against the Detroit Pistons. Following Sunday's win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, Ellis has been nursing a sore right hand and was initially regarded as questionable for Monday's game. Sunday's contest marked Ellis' ninth consecutive start. As a member of the first unit, he is averaging 10.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 2.2 steals this season. However, Ellis has struggled offensively in recent games, managing only 14 points over four games before wrapping up Sunday's action with 11 points.

Sacramento Kings guard Keon Ellis (hand) has been a popular addition down the stretch of the fantasy basketball season, but has been listed as questionable for the team's Monday night game against the Detroit Pistons. The scrappy, defensive guard has only missed two games this season and played 39 minutes in their last contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. If he's unable to play, that would likely force Malik Monk back into the starting five after seeing just 20 minutes Sunday when he registered eight points, seven rebounds, three assists, one steal, and four turnovers. Devin Carter would likely see a bump in minutes as well, but his production has been too inconsistent to be used as a streamer or in DFS lineups.

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Keon Ellis is working with the starting group to begin training camp. Kings head coach Mike Brown sees Ellis as a starter "for now." Sacramento has a spot open in the first unit due to Kevin Huerter's (shoulder) absence. Ellis' fantasy value will get a big boost if he sticks with the starters. The 24-year-old started 21 games last season, averaging 8.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.7 steals. Ellis is mainly known as a defensive specialist, but he can contribute across the board if given enough playing time.

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Keon Ellis posted a game-high 29 points in Wednesday's nail-biting 106-105 loss to the Knicks. The 24-year-old regained his rhythm offensively after being limited to nine total points across his previous two appearances. Ellis' prolific outing included four rebounds, six assists, two steals, and four blocks with 10-for-18 shooting. He finished 5-for-10 with the three-ball. Ellis is known as a defensive specialist, but his efforts this summer also include a 30-point outing against Golden State. After finishing last season as a starter, Ellis must be desperate to hang on to his spot, but it won't be easy with Malik Monk and Kevin Huerter still around.

Sacramento Kings guard Keon Ellis is joining the starting five for the second consecutive game. This time, he'll be replacing Kevin Huerter (leg) in the starting lineup after taking Keegan Murray's spot the game before. Ellis was able to post seven points, four rebounds, two assists, three steals, and one turnover while shooting 3-for-4 from the floor and 1-for-2 from downtown. Despite getting the starting nod, Ellis is a risky streaming option for those fantasy managers who are in shallower leagues. Better options are out there for guard stats. Plus, with Murray back, that will likely take the ball out of Ellis' hands a bit more.
