We’ve already learned Bucks guard Monta Ellis is opting out of of the final year of his six-year, $66 million contract, declining a two-year, $24 million extension offered by the Milwaukee Bucks.
Now ESPN’s Chris Broussard is reporting three teams – the Atlanta Hawks, Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks will all pursue Ellis.
Ellis and free agent center Dwight Howard have previously expressed their desire to play together.
Ellis averaged 19.2 points, 6.0 assists and 3.9 rebounds per game for the Bucks last season.
