Wayne Ellington Makes Most of New Role

Posted Jan 31, 2015
For most of this season, Wayne Ellington has been used nearly exclusively as a spot-up shooter. Before Kobe Bryant went down with a torn rotator cuff, 41.2 percent of Ellington’s shots were catch-and-shoot attempts. But since Ellington has filled Bryant’s role as the Lakers’ starting shooting guard, he has greatly altered his game, becoming the team’s top scoring option in the process. (NBA.com)
