Gery Woelfel of the Racine Journal Times reports that Milwaukee Bucks guard Monta Ellis plans to opt from the final year of his deal this offseason. The 27-year-old Ellis is defined to make $11 million next year if he plays out his current commitment, but it makes sense for him to reduce ties with the Bucks ASAP, especially given the condition between the team and point guard Brandon Jennings. Milwaukee are able to sign both people to long-term offers, and the wise money says that Ellis is the odd man out once the smoke clears next summer. Despite firing less than 42 percent from the field this year, Ellis continues to be one of the league's better scorers (19.2 PPGa'11th in the league), therefore he must have little difficulty locating a place to land when he officially cuts ties with the Bucks.
