More on Ellis
Rivals National Recruiting Analyst Jamie Shaw has evaluated Isaac Ellis on multiple occasions. He most recently saw him at the Beach Ball Classic in Myrtle Beach on New Year’s Eve and had this to say about his game:
It was the championship game of the Beach Ball Classic Prep Division and Moravian (NC) Prep went down 20-6 to start the game. Down at the half, they scratched and clawed their way back into the game. It was Louisville commit Isaac Ellis who set the tone. The 6-foot-1 point guard played with a calming nature, getting his team back into it by taking care of possessions and giving all out effort on the defensive end. There will be questions, but there will no doubting his competitive fire and his ability to lead. Ellis earned MVP of the Prep Division after finishing the title game with 12 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists, and 3 steals.
