Monta Ellis arrives next for the Indiana Pacers on ESPN’s Player Rankings in the 86th spot, down from 53rd last season.
Ellis is certainly the wild card in the Indiana Pacers’ lineup this season as he brings offensive firepower, but he needs the ball in his hands to do that. Can he and George Hill share the ball enough for both of them to be effective or will one reduce the other’s role to the point of irrelevancy? We don’t know the answer yet but it is the biggest question for the Indiana Pacers outside of whether Paul George can play power forward or not.
