Allen (concussion) won't play Wednesday against the Wizards but cleared the concussion protocol and should return Friday against the Nuggets, Evan Barnes of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old was previously ruled out for Wednesday's contest, but he cleared the concussion protocol and is participating in 5-on-5 work in practice. Allen last saw game action Feb. 26 and started in his past eight appearances for Memphis.

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

Allen (concussion) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game at Washington.
EDGE Analysis
Allen sustained the concussion Friday against the Clippers, and he'll miss a second straight game as he remains in the league's protocol. He'll have just one more opportunity (Thursday vs. Milwaukee) to return to action before the All-Star break. Rookie Desmond Bane started at shooting guard in Allen's absence Sunday against Houston.

Allen has been ruled out for Sunday's game at Houston due to a concussion.
EDGE Analysis
The 25-year-old apparently sustained the concussion during Friday's matchup with the Clippers, when he had zero points (0-4 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 19 minutes. De'Anthony Melton could receive the start Sunday in Allen's absence.

Allen is out for Saturday's game against the Suns for rest.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has started five straight games while averaging 13.4 points, 3.2 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 30.8 minutes. On the second night of a back-to-back set, he'll sit out to let his body recover. The Grizzlies' injury report is extensive, so we'll likely see plenty of minutes from the likes of Desmond Bane, Sean McDermott and other deep rotation players.

Allen had four points (2-8 FG, 0-3 3Pt), six assists, three steals and two boards in Friday's win over Detroit.
EDGE Analysis
Making his fifth straight start at shooting guard, Allen had one of his worst scoring games of the season, but he was able to salvage a decent fantasy line with a season-high six assists to go with three steals. Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton both returned to action for Memphis on Friday, but Dillon Brooks (thigh) was held out, so it remains to be seen how the minutes will be split when all four are healthy and available.

Allen recorded 23 points (8-13 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two steals and an assist across 35 minutes in Friday's loss against the Lakers.
EDGE Analysis
Allen reached the 20-point plateau just for the second time this season and finished as the Grizzlies' highest scorer in what was his fifth start of the campaign -- and his first one since Dec. 30. Allen took advantage of the opportunity and might remain in the starting lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Kings. For what is worth, Allen has now scored in double digits in six of his last seven contests, including three games in a row.

Allen (COVID-19 health and safety protocols) played 22 minutes Saturday in the Grizzlies' 118-109 loss to the Pelicans, providing eight points (3-9 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal.
EDGE Analysis
Allen immediately reclaimed his usual 20-plus-minute role in the rotation after missing the Grizzlies' previous four games while waiting to clear the NBA's health and safety protocol. He benefited to some extent by the absence of Brandon Clarke (calf) as well as De'Anthony Melton's early exit due to a sprained shoulder, so Allen could see his playing time reduced a bit if the Grizzlies are closer to full strength for Monday's game against the Raptors.

Allen (COVID-19 protocols) is off the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
Allen hasn't played since Jan. 18 due to health and safety protocols, and it appears he'll be making his return over the weekend. It's possible Allen will be on a minutes limit in his first game back.
