Golden State guard Monta Ellis participated in a full practice for the first time on Tuesday since undergoing left ankle surgery back in August.

"Monta actually did the whole practice today, which probably I wasn't supposed to (allow)," Coach Don Nelson said. "It kind of ended up that way."

Ellis has called himself a game-time decision from here on out but admitted that he needs to work on his conditioning.

"No pain. No swelling. Nothing. Everything feels good," Ellis said.

"Right now it ain't even the ankle. It's the condition work, getting back in the flow of things. ... Like I said, I'm going to take it day by day, continue to work hard, keep moving forward."
