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. Traded to the Cavaliers in January of 2026.

Continues to draw interest

ANALYSIS
Sacramento is open to moving him, though Scotto notes that league executives believe his value aligns closer to multiple second-round picks due to his pending free agency. The Kings have also explored pairing Ellis with DeRozan in trade frameworks. Ellis' fantasy value hinges heavily on landing spot, with potential upside if he moves to a team offering consistent minutes.
