Warriors guard Monta Ellis was mentioned in trade rumors this summer, but the team is no longer interested in moving him, according to the San Jose Mercury News.

Golden State (4-1) is off to their best start in 16 years and Ellis is playing much more efficiently so far this season.

"It's all coming together for him," Warriors coach Keith Smart said. "He's moving into another group, another area with his play."

According to team sources, there are only a handful of players that would make the Warriors consider trading Ellis.

Golden State's front office is very happy with the way Ellis and Stephen Curry have worked together in the backcourt.
