Report: Monta Ellis Pursuing NBA Comeback, Works out for Timberwolves
Veteran guard Monta Ellis continues to pursue an NBA comeback and has worked out for the Minnesota Timberwolves, reports Jon Krawczynski and Shams Charania of The Athletic:
Wolves continue to do due diligence on available vets even after locking up Deng. Monta Ellis, Brandon Paul and Brandon Rush among those to work out, @ShamsCharania and I hear.

Remember, it’s due diligence. Getting a workout does not mean there’s a signing coming. For every signing there are probably 15 workouts.
