Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Owns boards in 20-rebound game
Rotowire
Allen finished with 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-8 FT), 20 rebounds, three assists, three blocks and two steals over 39 minutes in Cleveland's 96-86 win over Orlando in Game 2 of the first-round playoff series.
Allen did it all to help Cleveland take a commanding 2-0 series lead, leading all players in Monday's contest in rebounds while pacing the Cavaliers in blocks to go along with a pair of steals in a double-double performance. Allen has owned the glass over the first two games of the opening-round series, recording at least 18 rebounds and a double-double in both contests.
Allen finished Saturday's 97-83 victory over the Magic in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals with 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-6 FT), 18 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 35 minutes.
Allen and Evan Mobley formed a devastating tandem in the frontcourt, and Allen made his presence felt on the glass due to his length and tenacity defensively. Allen recorded his fifth double-double over his last six appearances, and the big man should continue to perform at a high level in a favorable matchup.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Double-double against Charlotte
Rotowire
Allen contributed 17 points (7-9 FG, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, four assists and one steal in 33 minutes during Monday's 115-92 victory over the Hornets.
It's the 36th double-double of the season for Allen, as he extends his career high in that category. Eight of them have come in the last 12 games for the 25-year-old center, a stretch in which he's averaged 18.2 points, 12.0 boards, 2.5 assists and 1.1 blocks while shooting 60.0 percent from the floor. With Donovan Mitchell (nose) still lacking a timeline for his return, other Cavaliers like Allen will need to keep stepping up to keep the team out of the Play-In Tournament -- Cleveland is currently third in the Eastern Conference at 44-28, but only 4.5 games ahead of seventh-place Miami.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Plays 22 minutes Sunday
Rotowire
Allen contributed nine points (3-7 FG, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 22 minutes during Sunday's 121-84 loss to the Heat.
Allen only logged 22 minutes due to the nature of the blowout loss. To say that the Cavaliers have been struggling badly on offense without Donovan Mitchell (nose) would be an understatement at this point, but Sunday's performance was a new low for them, as they failed to reach the 90-point plateau for the first time in the entire campaign. Look for Allen to handle his regular workload when the Cavs take on the Hornets on Monday.

Rotowire
Allen totaled 15 points (5-10 FG, 5-6 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists and one block across 33 minutes during Friday's 104-91 loss to the Timberwolves.
Allen wasn't particularly efficient from the field -- at least for his standards, as he's made 62.7 percent of his shots this season -- but the fact that he suffered a hand injury midway through Friday's game might have played a role in that. Regardless, Allen still posted a double-double, and he's now reached that feat in four of his last six games. Allen is averaging 18.3 points and 12.4 rebounds per game since the beginning of March.

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: New career high in double-doubles
Rotowire

Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Monster double-double in loss
Rotowire
Allen supplied 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-5 FT), 19 rebounds, three assists and one block across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 112-101 loss to the Hawks.
Allen had tons of space in the paint since Evan Mobley (ankle) was sidelined, and that reflected immediately in his rebounding numbers, as the 19 boards represented his second-highest mark of the campaign. Allen has been playing well of late, and even though he only has four double-doubles over his last nine games since the end of the All-Star break, he's still averaging a decent 17.8 points with 10.8 rebounds per contest in that stretch.

Allen is an underrated playmaker, and his passing ability was on full display Sunday. For the 10th time in his career, he registered at least six assists. Allen was coming off a couple of quiet performances against the Pistons and Bulls, so his fantasy managers will be relieved to see him get back on track.

Allen had one of his busiest games of the season from an offensive perspective, as his 18 field-goal attempts were close to tying his season-high mark, but he didn't forget about his contributions on the other end of the court.
