Wayne Ellington
Wayne Ellington has had plenty of playing time to shine. Injuries to multiple guards and the desperate need for perimeter shooting kept him on the floor. Unfortunately, he hasn’t been knocking down his shots. Every jumpshot taken has him leaning, one way or another. His misses are close, but he seems to hurry to get his shot off against defensive pressure. He keeps leaning to get his shot off. Sadly, he hustled for a basketball against the Sacramento Kings and hit Ben McLemore head on. He looked out-of-sorts afterwards. We hope that he’s able to continue his NBA career.
