Available to play Sunday
Ellis (finger) is listed as available for Sunday's game against the Nets.
Analyse
Ellis has been cleared to return after missing one game with a left index finger fracture. While James Harden (thumb) is also expected to return to the lineup Sunday, Ellis should still see a healthy workload in a backcourt that remains without Donovan Mitchell (groin).

Questionable for Sunday
Ellis (finger) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Nets.
Analyse
Ellis is in danger of missing a second consecutive contest due to a left index finger fracture. However, if he's cleared to suit up, the 26-year-old guard would likely see increased minutes due to Donovan Mitchell (groin) being sidelined. Over his last five outings, Ellis has averaged 7.6 points, 2.4 rebounds, 2.0 assists 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks in 22.4 minutes per contest.

Ruled out Friday
Ellis (finger) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pistons.
Analyse
Ellis was initially listed as questionable for Friday's contest, though he'll be held out due to a left index finger fracture. His next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Nets. With the 26-year-old guard joining Donovan Mitchell (groin) and James Harden (thumb) on the sidelines, Sam Merrill, Dennis Schroder and Craig Porter are likely to see increased playing time, while Tyrese Proctor could enter the rotation.

Added to injury report
Ellis is questionable for Friday's game against Detroit due to a left index finger fracture.
Analyse
Ellis presumably suffered the injury at some point during Wednesday's game against Milwaukee, though it appears he plans to try to play through the fracture. He'll likely test the injury during shootaround and pre-game warmups to see if he's able to suit up Friday.

Steps up off bench Wednesday
Ellis contributed 14 points (5-9 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, one block and two steals over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 118-116 loss to the Bucks.
Analyse
Ellis took advantage of the absences of Donovan Mitchell (groin) and James Harden (thumb). Ellis is carving out a more stable role in Cleveland than he was in Sacramento, averaging 6.4 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.6 steals and 1.0 blocks in 21.6 minutes per contest in nine games for the Cavaliers.
