3 Grayson Allen SG

Allen recorded 23 points (7-13 FG, 6-11 3Pt, 3-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals during Wednesday's 114-113 loss to Dallas.

Allen led the Grizzlies offensively despite the loss at the buzzer, as the guard tied a season best with six threes en route to his sixth outing reaching the 20-point plateau. Across his first 40 games this season with Memphis, Allen is averaging career highs in almost every major statistical category, including points (10.9), rebounds (3.2), assists (2.2) and steals (1.0).

Allen recorded 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt), six rebounds and two assists across 32 minutes in Monday's win over the Bulls.

Allen has played well since returning from a hip injury seven games ago, and he has scored in double digits five times during that stretch. He has drained at least one three-pointer in each one of those contests as well but has shot just 36.5 percent from deep in that span.

Allen tallied 30 points (10-18 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 7-8 FT), four rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 131-113 win over the Hawks.

The 25-year-old caught fire Wednesday, but he's generally played well over his four games since returning from a hip injury. In that span, Allen has averaged 17.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 3.2 three-pointers and 2.3 assists. The third-year guard should continue starting and playing 25-to-30 minutes per game the rest of the way for the eighth-seeded Grizzlies.

Allen recorded 15 points (5-14 FG, 4-13 3Pt, 1-1 FT), five rebounds, two assists, two steals and two blocks across 27 minutes in Sunday's win over the 76ers.

Allen was having a rather pedestrian performance, but he caught fire in the second half and notched 11 of his 15 points during a game-changing third quarter in which the Grizzlies outscored the Sixers by a 45-29 score. Allen holds a secondary role in Memphis' offensive scheme but is trending in the right direction of late, as he has reached the 15-point mark in four of his last six games as a starter.

Allen recorded 15 points (5-7 FG, 5-7 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes during Friday's 120-108 win over the Timberwolves.

Allen has been inserted into the starting lineup over the last 10 games and provided some potent shooting and spacing for Ja Morant. While the ex-Blue Devil is the starter, De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bane both play similar minutes and provide a well-rounded game off the bench. Bane is also the only player on the Grizzlies shooting a higher percentage from three (44.9 percent) than Allen (41.9 percent).

Allen (hip) is officially good to go for Friday's tilt against the Timberwolves, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

It was previously reported that Allen was trending in this direction, so no surprise here. He is returning from a one-game absence, so look for him to take on his usual workload, assuming he avoids any setbacks.

Allen (hip) is expected to play Friday against the Timberwolves, Rob Fischer of Fox Sports Southeast reports.

After a one-game absence due to left hip soreness, Allen will likely be back in the starting five. Across 20 games as a starter this season, he's averaged 9.3 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 25.6 minutes.

Allen (hip) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against Minnesota.

Allen had to miss Wednesday's loss to Utah due to left hip soreness and he remains uncertain for Friday due to the injury. Desmond Bane started Wednesday in Allen's absence and went for seven points, five rebounds and five assists across 33 minutes.

Allen (hip) is out for Wednesday's matchup against the Jazz, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Still recovering from left hip soreness due to an injury suffered Monday against the Rockets, Allen will miss his first game since March 14. In his absence, De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bane should see increased action.

Allen (hip) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Jazz.

The 25-year-old picked up the injury during Monday's matchup with the Rockets but may not miss additional time. De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bane could see increased run if Allen is unavailable Wednesday.

Allen won't return to Monday's game against the Rockets due to hip soreness.

Allen took a hard fall in the first half, and while he was seemingly able to walk it off, the issue is evidently still bothering him. De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bane should see additional minutes the rest of the night as a result.

Allen notched 20 points (8-14 FG, 4-9 3Pt), five rebounds and two assists across 26 minutes in Wednesday's win at Oklahoma City.

Allen has been in and out of the starting lineup in recent weeks, but he's started five games in a row and seems to have won a spot in the lineup once again -- he has started in 13 of Memphis' last 14 contests. His scoring outputs have been inconsistent, but he's certainly capable of putting up big numbers, as this was his fourth game of the season with at least 20 points. He is seeing enough minutes to be productive, but now he has to be more consistent on a game-to-game basis to see an increase in his upside.

Allen will start Wednesday's game against the Heat, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

The 25-year-old had 15 points in 23 minutes Monday in his first game action since February, and he'll now rejoin the Grizzlies' starting lineup. Allen is averaging 8.3 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.6 assists in 26.0 minutes across 12 starts this season.

Allen (coach's decision) did not see the floor during Sunday's loss to the Thunder.

Allen was cleared from concussion protocol prior to Friday's game against Denver, but he did not see the floor in that contest, and he was once again a DNP-CD on Sunday. For now, it looks as though coach Taylor Jenkins is favoring rookie Desmond Bane as the starting two guard, with De'Anthony Melton serving as the primary backup.

Allen (coach's decision) didn't see the court Friday in the Grizzlies' 103-102 loss to the Nuggets.

He was available after missing the previous five games with a concussion, but head coach Taylor Jenkins favored Desmond Bane (17 minutes), De'Anthony Melton (24) and Tyus Jones (14) for minutes in the backcourt beyond Ja Morant and Dillon Brooks. Prior to the concussion, Allen had started the last eight games, so he'll likely work his way back into the rotation in the near future.

Allen will come off the bench Friday against the Nuggets, Rob Fischer of Fox Sports Southeast reports.

Allen is set to make his return from a four-game absence, and he'll do so off the bench as the Grizzlies stick with rookie Desmond Bane as the starting two guard next to Ja Morant. Allen had started his last eight healthy contests, averaging 10.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.0 steal in that span (27.5 MPG).

Allen (concussion) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.

The 25-year-old missed the final three games before the All-Star break due to a concussion, and he's still sidelined to begin the second half of the season. De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bane should continue to have increased roles with Allen still unavailable.
