Cavaliers' Jarrett Allen: Won't play Sunday

Allen (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Celtics.

Allen will be held out of the front end of the Cavaliers' back-to-back set, marking his fourth absence in a five-game span. With the big man and Larry Nance (calf) both sidelined, Dean Wade, Nae'Qwan Tomlin and Thomas Bryant are all candidates for increased minutes.
