Cody Gordon Ellis (born 24 April 1990) is an Australian professional basketball player for the Stirling Senators of the State Basketball League (SBL). He played college basketball for Saint Louis University in the United States and has previously played in the NBL for the Sydney Kings. He has also represented Australia at the 2013 Summer Universiade in Russia.
Ellis grew up in Perth, Western Australia before moving to Canberra in 2008 to attend the Australian Institute of Sport (AIS). In 2008 and 2009, he played for the program's basketball team in the South East Australian Basketball League (SEABL). He was also a member of the Under 19 Australian Emus team that finished fourth at the 2009 FIBA Under-19 World Championship in Auckland.
As a freshman at Saint Louis in 2009–10, Ellis played in 22 games and made 19 starts. He missed the first 14 games of the season before being cleared by the NCAA and joined the team in January 2010. He averaged 10.5 points and 4.9 rebounds per game, and finished third on the team with 39 three-pointers. He subsequently earned Atlantic 10 All-Rookie Team honours.
As a sophomore in 2010–11, Ellis played in 21 games for the Billikens and drew four starts, but suffered a dislocated shoulder against Xavier on February 5 that ended his season. Over 21 games, he averaged 6.5 points and 3.7 rebounds per game.
As a junior in 2011–12, Ellis finished third on the team in scoring with 10.1 points in what was his first full season. He led the team with 69 three-pointers made, which tied for the eighth most in a single season at SLU. He was a key sixth man for the Billikens, appearing in every game (34) and coming off the bench in all but one.
