3 Grayson Allen SG

Allen finished scoreless (0-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt) with three rebounds in Wednesday's Game 2 loss to Utah.

A first-round pick of the Jazz in 2018, Allen struggled to settle in against his former team and finished as a game-worst minus-23 in 19 minutes of action. Allen missed all six of his attempts from the field, including a pair of key three-pointers on a night when Memphis hit just eight threes as a team. For most of the season, Allen has shared minutes with Desmond Bane (24 minutes in Game 2) and De'Anthony Melton (17), and that will likely continue to be the case for the duration of Round 1.

Allen (abdomen) played five minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 100-96 win over the Spurs in the Western Conference play-in tournament, finishing with zero points (0-2 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one turnover and no other statistics.

After missing the Grizzlies' final seven regular-season games with a left abdominal strain, Allen filled only a minor bench role in his return to action. Allen's playing time could ramp up a bit Friday, when the Grizzlies face the Warriors in the final game of the play-in tournament. Even if that's the case, Allen likely won't get enough playing time to make for an appealing option in DFS contests.

Allen (abdomen) is available for Wednesday's play-in game against the Spurs.

With the Grizzlies' season on the line, Allen is set to return following a seven-game absence due to abdominal soreness. The 25-year-old averaged 10.6 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 25.2 minutes per game this season.

Allen played only six minutes before exiting with the abdominal injury, finishing with two points and one turnover. While the severity of the injury is unclear at this time, it's hard to imagine that Allen will be fully recovered in time for Thursday's matchup with Detroit. Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton could see increased run as long as Allen is sidelined.

Allen (hand) is available and starting Monday's game against the Knicks, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Allen (hand) is doubtful for Friday's contest against the Magic.

Allen didn't have his best shooting performance but still cracked the 20-point plateau for the third time over his last four appearances. He's also made multiple threes in five games in a row, and while he's not expected to be a go-to player on offense for the Grizzlies, he's certainly putting up decent numbers in recent games. He's also scored in double digits in nine of his previous 11 contests.

Allen had 26 points (9-13 FG, 7-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist and two steals in Saturday night's win over Milwaukee.

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).
