Not only did he lead the Indiana Pacers (and all scorers) on Saturday night, but his 3-point play in overtime sealed the game for Indiana’s second-straight win.
Ellis was 13 of 28 on the night including 4 of 8 from beyond the arc, as well as 2 of 3 from the free-throw line. Monta also had 9 rebounds, 6 assists, and 3 steals.
Down the stretch, he had one big steal by intercepting a potential alley-oop and a beautiful over his head assist to Jordan Hill in perhaps his most complete performance of the season.
