According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, undrafted Alabama guard Keon Ellis has signed a two-way contract with the Sacramento Kings.

Ellis, 22, averaged 12.1 points, 6.1 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1.9 steals per game on 44 percent shooting from the field and 36 percent shooting from beyond the three-point line.

The 6’6 guard is regarded as a ‘three-and-D’ option that will get plenty of opportunity with the Kings this summer during Summer League play in San Francisco and Las Vegas.
