Monta Ellis
Shooting guard
Milwaukee Bucks
After landing in Milwaukee as part of the deal that saw Andrew Bogut traded to Golden State, Monta Ellis has again shown off his ability to adapt to any team’s structure.
Ellis has formed a good bond with another undersized by volume-scoring backcourt player in Brandon Jennings.
But a lack of ability to set up shots for teammates combined with a worryingly high turnover rate for a pure shooting guard would have some teams worried.
Again all the teams with the cash to splash could get Ellis interested, but Dallas would be an ideal location to provide another wing shooter and to off-set Dirk Nowitzki as his legs get older.
Verdict: Mavericks have their replacement for Jason Terry in Ellis.
