Keon Ellis

Injured during Thursday's loss to the Rockets, Ellis fully participated in Saturday's practice and will play on Sunday. He'll provide depth and deep-league fantasy value coming off the bench.

Sacramento guard Keon Ellis provided an invaluable spark in the Kings' 123-100 win over the Washington Wizards on Sunday at Golden 1 Center.

Ellis has made at least one 3-pointer in 16 straight games and two or more in each of his last four. Sunday's effort was the best of the bunch, as the Kings guard shot 6-of-8 from beyond the arc and scored 18 points. Ellis didn't provide much defensive value, but improved scoring can raise his fantasy ceiling despite coming off the bench. He remains, at best, a deep-league option, but Ellis is someone to be mindful of if the Kings lose someone to an injury.

Carter did not practice on Saturday, and the rookie has officially been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Wizards. Keon Ellis (ankle) is questionable, and he (along with Kevin Huerter) can absorb the minutes that would have gone to Carter.

Carter did not participate in Saturday's practice and is expected to be unable to play against the Wizards. Keon Ellis (ankle) is considered questionable, and his return would help the Kings account for Carter's absence. While the rookie guard has played rotation minutes, he has not impacted fantasy basketball.
