The following was released at today's Warriors practice:

"Guard Monta Ellis, who has experienced occasional stiffness in his left ankle since returning to action on January 23, including during last night's game against Oklahoma City, will be sidelined the next 1-2 weeks.   During this time, the 6'3" guard will continue advanced rehabilitation on a daily basis with the Warriors' Athletic Training Staff."

This kind of makes you wonder. Is "occasional stiffness" part of the deal with an injury like Ellis' or is he damaged goods? Time will tell.

Nelson keeps wanting to play him at point guard. Ellis is not a point guard. He is a dangerous scoring 2 guard and he is very quick as long as his ankle holds out.
