Quinn Ellis earns invite to NBA G-League Elite Camp

Quinn Ellis, who declared for the NBA Draft last month, received an invite to the NBA G-League Elite Camp in Chicago next week but will be unable to attend due to playoffs with his club side.

The G-League Elite Camp is a two-day event held in Chicago before the Draft Combine, providing an opportunity for prospects like Ellis to get in front of NBA decision-makers through competitive games and drills.

NBA teams vote for 75 players they’d like to see invited to the Draft Combine; the 78 players with the most votes got into the Combine, and then the next 44 get in to the G League Elite Camp.

This year’s camp will be held in Chicago May 11-12 and will be immediately followed by the Draft Combine (May 13-19).

At least a half dozen players typically parlay their performances into a Combine invite according to DraftExpress’ Jonathan Givony.

However, Trento’s playoff run will prevent Ellis from participating as they battle Olimpia Milano in the quarterfinals during that same window.

The 21-year-old guard from Sheffield declared for the 2024 NBA Draft as an early entrant after previously testing the waters in 2023.

Ellis averaged 8.9 points, 3.8 assists and 2.8 rebounds on 61.0 TS% in EuroCup action this season, including two game winners, before breaking his fifth metatarsal which saw him out for a 2 months weeks before returning in April and having an immediate impact in Legabasket games for Trento.

Ellis is expected to work out in front of several NBA teams in the United States after finishing his duties with Trento.

Do you like our work?

We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.

We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.

We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.

If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.

We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
