Quinn Ellis has chosen to keep his name in the 2024 NBA Draft.

First reported by Draft Express’ Jon Chepkevich on Sunday evening, Ellis’ named remained in when the international player deadline passed at 5pm ET last night, meaning he will officially be amongst the pool of players to potentially be selected in the draft which is being held across two days for the first time on 26 and 27 Jun.

Hailing from Sheffield, the top British prospect has completed 12 workouts with NBA teams, with feedback said to be positive.

“(Quinn) Received strong interest and positive feedback from NBA teams throughout the pre-draft process,” Chepkevich tweeted.

“One of the most interesting stay/go decisions of the draft class has decided to bet on themselves and make the leap.”

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 2 months only to return in April and have an immediate impact in Legabasket games for Trento.

He will now remain in the US until the draft, continuing with workouts in an effort to move up the boards.

Most recently, the 6’4″ point guard appeared at number #88 in Draft Express’ Top 100 rankings.

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.
