Siegel's Take -
Top 30 Scouting Reports
“The only thing keeping Ellis in
contention for the first round, is that this year’s prep class is inferior
to last year’s, and its almost like GM's feel that there has to be a few
high school guys in the 1st round at this point. His one saving
grace as opposed to Louis Williams, is that teams feel he can be molded into
a workable NBA point guard. However, its hard to imagine Ellis ever getting
off the bench for at least 2 seasons if he goes pro. he doesn't have near
the talent as recent high school to NBA projects such as Travis Outlaw or
Dorrel Wright, who have yet to see serious playing time as pros.”
