Suns' Grayson Allen: Scores 20 in regular-season finale
Rotowire
Allen closed Sunday's 109-98 loss to the Kings with 20 points (8-13 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds and five assists in 28 minutes.
Allen started in the Suns' final three games of what can only be considered as a lost season, but the former Duke standout spent most of the campaign in a bench role while cracking the first unit at times. Allen finished his seventh year in the league -- and second with the Suns -- averaging 10.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.1 assists per game across 64 appearances (seven starts).

Suns' Grayson Allen: Posts 12 points in loss
Rotowire
Allen chipped in 12 points (4-9 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal in 18 minutes during Tuesday's 133-95 loss to the Warriors.
Allen and Devin Booker were the only players to log double-digit scoring totals, and this decisive loss could spell the end of the team's playoff hopes. Allen's season can be labeled a disappointment, as he lost his place with the first unit after starting 74 games during the 2023-24 campaign. He cracked the first unit only four times this season, reducing his seasonal averages and minutes played.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Scores 15 points vs. New York
Rotowire
Allen provided 15 points (4-13 FG, 0-6 3Pt, 7-7 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Sunday's 112-98 loss to the Knicks.
Allen didn't have his best shooting performance Sunday, but the fact that he made all seven of his attempts from the charity stripe salvaged his fantasy performance a bit. Allen has scored in double digits in just two of his last seven appearances, so he's not carrying a lot of fantasy upside at the moment, especially since it seems he'll end the campaign operating off the bench even with Kevin Durant (calf) sidelined.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Not starting Friday
Rotowire
Allen won't start Friday's game against the Celtics.
In the midst of a four-game losing streak and still without Kevin Durant (ankle), the Suns are switching up their starting lineup Friday, rolling with Bradley Beal, Devin Booker, Ryan Dunn, Royce O'Neale and Oso Ighodaro. Allen dropped 23 points (8-17 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 1-2 FT) in 34 minutes as a starter in Milwaukee on Tuesday. However, the sharpshooter totaled just 15 points over his previous four appearances off the bench.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Goes for 23 points Tuesday
Rotowire
Allen totaled 23 points (8-17 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one steal in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 133-123 loss to the Bucks.
Allen surpassed the 20-point mark for the first time since Feb. 7, and perhaps as a coincidence, that was also the last game in which he'd been part of the starting lineup. Allen can deliver solid numbers if he gets enough touches on offense, and given how depleted the Suns are right now, Phoenix could welcome Allen's uptick in his offensive numbers over the final weeks of the season.

Rotowire
Allen ended Tuesday's 119-117 win over the Clippers with eight points (3-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals in 24 minutes.
Allen finished perfect from the field and made a strong impact off the bench along with Royce O'Neale and Collin Gillespie. Bradley Beal left this game after 15 minutes with an ankle injury, and Bol Bol played just nine minutes as a starter.
