Monta Ellis, who hasn't played in four years, is looking for a comeback...
Journalist Brad Townsend reports that Ellis is currently trying to return to the NBA.
The last time he appeared on the NBA was on April 13, '17.
In the 74 games he played for the Pacers that season, Ellis still averaged 27 minutes of playing time per game, averaging 8.5 points per game.
At the end of the season, the Pacers opted to cut 31-year-old Ellis.
In the time that followed, the brother was always in a state of no ball to play, and the outside world tacitly acknowledged that he belonged to retirement.
Unexpectedly, after four years, Monta Ellis, who turned 35, suddenly sought a comeback...
Speaking of Monta Ellis, this brother's career is also a fierce one.
Debuting in the Warriors, he was once a member of the Golden State Bandit Gang, and even Curry had to call him a big brother.
Although he is only a second-round show, Ellis has broken through his own world in the NBA with his fierce breakthrough speed and fierce chaotic scoring ability.
In 13 years of his career, he averaged 17.8 points per game, including 20+ points per game in four single-season attempts.
In the game against the Thunder on February 7, 2012, Ellis scored 48 points in a single game against the Thunder.
In that game, Durant scored 33 points, Westbrook 31 points and Curry 16 points.
Ellis' personal abilities are unquestionably one of the best two-guard players who were not selected as An All-Star players of that era.
His style of play has a strong old-time character.
Blocking and dismantling, using cover to pull out the middle shot, and using speed one-on-one to break the opponent's defense, is Ellis's signature action.
Because of his speed advantage when he was young, he could apply it to almost any tactical system, and he was the league's top chaos master.
The disadvantages are a slightly thin body, poor shooting choices at times, and unstable three-point efficiency.
This type of defender, after thirty and standing, the state will generally decline to varying degrees.
The same is true of Ellis, which is the main reason why he was left unnoticed after being laid off by the Pacers at the age of 31.
Now at the age of 35, trying to make a comeback, we don't know whether Monta Ellis' tank still has oil.
However, Digo personally believes that the Warriors can try to sign him.
As for the reasons, one is the feelings, the second is the experience of the veterans, and the third is the leadership ability of the locker room.
In recent years, the Warriors have a fondness for signing teams, with players such as Barbosa and Livingston hired one after the other.
Signing Ellis can not only get a good reputation for himself, but also realize his dream.
At the same time, as a veteran, he can provide a certain amount of game experience for Moody and Poole rookies, and at the same time, he can also play a role in suppressing the locker room, which can be called killing three birds with one stone.
With few free-agent players left, it's not impossible for the Warriors to sign Ellis on an unsecured contract.
