Ellis is dealing with a sore right knee and is questionable for Friday's game against the Nets.
Analysis:
This is the first we've heard of the injury, so it's likely nothing too serious, but it still puts his status in question for Friday's game. If he's forced to sit out, Rodney Stuckey would likely move into the starting lineup, while Chase Budinger could see some extra minutes off the bench as well. Considering it's just soreness, though, it seems likely he'll be able to play through it. We should see his status updated as we get closer to game time.
