6 points in 18 minutes off the bench in his Cavaliers debut. Seems improbable that his minutes are going to increase once Harden has been cleared.

I watched some of the game. Dennis actually played really well early had some steals and a bunch of assists during that stretch.
Keon played about 10 minutes when the game was still in doubt and then got a good run at the end. Hit his shots and played solid defense

Unless someone values defense
If Kenny Atkinson valued defense that much, he wouldn't be trying to go into the playoffs with a starting backcourt of Donovan Mitchell and James Harden.

I'm just happy for him that he gets to compete with a winning team for something. Give some substance and meaning to his hard work, beyond the money
Good for him. Hope with Harden he isn't frozen out. Situation went from promising to uh-oh with that move.

Not exactly my point but in the neighborhood
Cavs at full strength for the first time in a while and Ellis still got 20 minutes off the bench. Could be a good sign!
So you're trying to tell me a good team with excellent all-nba/all-star guards still found a way to get Keon on the floor for a significant role?
Huh, didn't know you were allowed to do that.
[Cleveland Cavaliers official] Cavaliers guard Keon Ellis injured his left index finger in Wednesday night's game at Milwaukee. A postgame examination by the Cavaliers’ medical staff, followed by X-rays taken at the arena, confirmed a non-displaced volar plate avulsion of his left index PIP joint.
Ellis will undergo treatment and continued evaluation and listed as QUESTIONABLE tonight at Detroit. His status will be provided as appropriate.

I know he has had a finger injury since joining the Cavs but looking at today’s stats in a loss against the Celtics nothing stands out. In 24 minutes 0 points, 3 rebounds, a steal and a block.
That’s only one game and still a small sample size but any reason to think the Kings really screwed up bad by not investing in him?

Yeah, what he did as a King when he was given consistent substantial playing time with a decent roster. Remember when he was about to be the game 1 starter going into last season? He earned that, but they felt obligated to move Huerter back in front of him at the last minute. Something about "not losing a starting spot, after an injury"
True, he’s been jerked around a lot, lack of consistency hasn’t helped his cause. The Cavs bringing in Harden right after trading for Keon also doesn’t help.
He’s a FA after this season I believe, will be interesting his market.
