Lanier HIgh alumnus Monta Ellis will make his season debut for the Golden State Warriors on Friday night.

Ellis injured his ankle in a summer moped accident, and initially lied to the team about how he was injured. The Warriors fined Ellis $3 million and reserved the right to take further action, including voiding his $66 million contract.

Programming note: ESPN will show the Warriors game at Dallas on Wednesday, Jan. 28 (8 p.m.)
