Allen will move into the starting lineup for Tuesday's preseason game against the Nuggets, Duane Rankin of Arizona Central reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen will start in the backcourt next to Saben Lee with Devin Booker and Bradley Beal getting the night off for rest. Allen's usage should be fairly high Tuesday evening, but there's no telling how long he'll play.

Allen posted 18 points (7-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, three assists, two steals and one block over 20 minutes in Sunday's 130-126 overtime win over Detroit in the preseason.
EDGE Analysis
Allen led all Suns players in scoring while connecting on a team-leading mark from three in Sunday's preseason win over the Pistons in overtime. Allen, who was traded to Phoenix this offseason, could become a key player and spark off the bench for the Suns in his sixth NBA campaign.

Allen was traded to the Suns on Wednesday as part of a three-team deal involving Milwaukee, Portland and Phoenix, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports. The trade also sends Damian Lillard to the Bucks, while Jrue Holiday and Deandre Ayton land in Portland.
EDGE Analysis
With so many big-name players involved, Allen feels like somewhat of a throw-in in the deal, but he'll bring some valuable depth to a top-heavy Suns roster. With Devin Booker and Bradley Beal in place, Allen may settle into a bench role, but his ability to play both guard spots should prove valuable. Allen finished last season with averages of 10.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 0.9 steals and 2.0 made threes in 27.4 minutes per contest.

Allen notched 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt), four rebounds and two assists across 27 minutes during Saturday's 121-99 loss to Miami in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
EDGE Analysis
Allen continues to be a reliable source of offense for Milwaukee. He's averaged 14.0 points while shooting 52.6 percent from deep during the first three games of the opening-round series versus Miami. So far, Giannis Antetokounmpo's (back) absence hasn't had a significant impact on Allen's role or production.

Allen (ankle) will play in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference First Round against the Heat, Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen missed Milwaukee's last four regular-season games with a sprained right ankle but should be a full-go for Sunday's tilt. In his last 10 appearances, Allen averaged 8.3 points, 2.9 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals over 24.8 minutes.

Coach Mike Budenholzer said Allen (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has missed Milwaukee's last four games due to a right ankle sprain. However, his return to practice Thursday is a good sign of his availability for Sunday's matchup versus the winner of the Heat and Bulls in the Play-In. The 27-year-old guard has started in 70 of his 72 appearances this season.

Allen (ankle) was a limited participant during Tuesday's practice, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen hasn't played since April 2 due to a right ankle sprain, but he was expected to be re-evaluated ahead of playoff action. The fact he was able to at least do some parts of Tuesday's practice is a good sign, and he still has a few more days to rest and rehab before the Bucks find out who their opening-round opponent will be.

Coach Mike Budenholzer said Tuesday that Allen's (ankle) return may coincide with when the Bucks learn who their opponent is coming out of the Play-In, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen had already been ruled out Tuesday due to a right ankle sprain he suffered against the Wizards, but additional contests can be added to that ledger. Budenholzer's comments indicate that the 27-year-old guard returning for the first round of the playoffs would be a best-case scenario. With Milwaukee sitting in first place in the Eastern Conference, two games ahead of Boston, there is no reason to rush him back early. Goran Dragic, Pat Connaughton and Joe Ingles are among the candidates to see extended minutes in Allen's absence.

Allen (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was helped to the locker room in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup against Philadelphia due to his right ankle sprain, and he'll be unavailable for the first half of a back-to-back set Tuesday. Joe Ingles will likely see increased run against Washington.

Allen has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the 76ers due to a right ankle sprain.
EDGE Analysis
Allen sustained his ankle injury in the third quarter and had to be helped to the locker room afterward, and he was ruled out shortly before the fourth quarter. Prior to his departure, he logged two points (1-3 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist in 20 minutes. Whether he'll be available Tuesday against the Wizards remains to be seen, but Joe Ingles will likely see increased run if Allen is sidelined.
