Allen (right lower leg) will not return to Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, Peter Edmiston of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The specifics of Allen's injury aren't clear, but it didn't appear to be anything major. In his absence, look for Andrew Harrison, Wayne Seldon and Troy Daniels to pick up additional playing time.

Allen (eye) returned from a one-game absence and contributed 14 points (7-10 FG, 0-1 3Pt), seven rebounds, four assists and two steals across 28 minutes during a 103-100 loss to the Thunder on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was quite good in the return, with contributions across the board. With Mike Conley (eye) sidelined, Allen had a slightly larger role in the offense. After six consecutive games of single-digit scoring, he has now scored in double figures in two straight outings. Expect the scoring to dip soon, but Allen is usually fairly reliable source of steals, and he has had at least four rebounds in his last 12 games played.

Allen (eye) will play in Wednesday's game against the Thunder, Tim MacMahon of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen missed Tuesday's game against the Spurs with left eye issues, but it looks as though he is good to go without any restrictions Wednesday. Look for Allen to play his usual dose of 25-to-30 minutes against Oklahoma City and potentially be assigned the duty of guarding Russell Westbrook for majority of the night.

Allen (eye) is considered questionable for Wednesday's tilt with the Thunder.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was held out of Tuesday's game against the Spurs because of an undisclosed eye injury and is apparently still dealing with some lingering discomfort. Considering the Grizzlies have locked up a playoff spot, they could take a cautious approach and give Allen another night off for rest. That said, look for his status to be updated again after pregame warmups. James Ennis and Troy Daniels would likely pick up some extra minutes if he's held out again.

Allen (eye) will not play Tuesday versus the Spurs, Paul Garcia of Project Spurs reports.
EDGE Analysis
When Allen sustained his eye injury is unclear, but he ultimately found himself on the injury report heading into Tuesday's game. The Grizzlies are likely being cautions with their veteran shooting guard, as they are playing in the first half of a back-to-back set. Look for Troy Daniels and Andrew Harrison to see increased roles with Allen sidelined.

Allen (eye) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game at the Spurs, Michael Wallace of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
It remains relatively unknown as of how or when Allen injured his eye, but it seems as if there's a real possibility that he could miss Tuesday's date with San Antonio. In the midst of his 12th season in the league, Allen is averaging 9.1 points per games and 5.6 rebounds per game. While his numbers have somewhat declined over the last week or so, Allen has been a steady contributor the majority of the year. In all likelihood his availability for Tuesday should become more clear as the game inches closer, but in the event that he can't play both Troy Daniels and Wayne Selden could be in line for increased playing time.

Allen (knee) supplied eight points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, two steals and one block over 29 minutes in Thursday's 97-90 loss to the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
Allen took the court after missing Tuesday's game against the Pelicans with his sore left knee and provided his typically full stat line. The veteran will never wow you with his scoring totals, but his ability to contribute across the stat sheet keeps him viable in deeper formats and renders him a cost-effective play in daily leagues. Factoring in Thursday's production, Allen is averaging 8.7 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.7 assists across 25.2 minutes in 10 March contests.

Allen (knee) will play and start at shooting guard for Thursday's game against the Spurs.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, Allen will take the floor for Thursday's game after missing Tuesday's matchup with a sore left knee. He'll rejoin the starting five and should see around 25 minutes of run. As a result, Wayne Selden will move back to the bench.

Allen (knee) is still a game-time decision, but is expected to suit up for Thursday's tilt against the Spurs, Rob Fischer of FOX Sports Southeast reports.
EDGE Analysis
After being held out of Tuesday's matchup with the Pelicans due to a sore left knee, Allen is expected to play during Thursday's game against the Spurs. Despite the official designation of a game-time decision, coach David Fizdale expects Allen to take the floor, so he should likely be considered probable.

Allen (knee) received treatment during Wednesday's practice and is expected to be listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Spurs, Michael Wallace of Grizzlies.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was held out of Tuesday's tilt with the Pelicans because of a sore left knee and he's apparently still dealing with some discomfort considering he spent Wednesday's practice undergoing treatment. That said, with Kawhi Leonard of the Spurs on the docket, the Grizzlies would definitely benefit if the defensive-minded Allen was available, so he'll likely do everything he can to get cleared for Thursday's contest. He's fully expected to be listed as questionable, however, so we may not get a final word on Allen's availability until just before tip-off.
