Wayne Ellington is a prime breakout candidate

Posted Oct 11, 2013
Wayne Ellington along with Brandan Wright, will get the chance to have breakout seasons this year. And really, last season was a bit of a breakthrough for Ellington, as well as Wright. In a season when he was traded from Memphis to Cleveland, Ellington saw his playing time rise with the Cavaliers. He sees even better times ahead on a Mavericks team that has far more veteran talent than did Cleveland. (Dallas Morning News)
