In the Dreamerz 88-70 victory over the Diamond Doves on Friday evening, Ellis matched his career-high and the league record for single points in a game when he dropped another 50-burger. Ellis was unconscious from everywhere on the floor, as he made 20 shots, by far the league record while, also going a cool 8-for-10 from the charity stripe. Ellis finished the game with a remarkable +24 plus/minus, which is a top-ten mark in a single game this season 🧮
The night before, Ellis made his presence felt elsewhere, as he nearly recorded a triple-double with a final stat-line of 15 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists in the Dreamerz 94-89 victory over Rolling Loud 🔥

Since the calendar flipped, Ellis has spearheaded the hottest and most efficient offense in the league, as he leads the league in PPG with an unbelievable 35.4 points per contest. Ellis has led the Dreamerz to a 5-1 record in 2024, including a current four-game winning streak that has taken them up to second in the standings 🔝
Ellis and the Dreamerz will next take the court on Tuesday at 7PM in Lincolnton, NC where they will take on the City Reapers, who come in with the league's top record at 8-3, in a matchup that is primed to be one of the best of the season 🍿
