Allen (ankle) will not play Monday against Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Allen is nursing a sore ankle, which he injured during Saturday's loss to the Suns. Expect him to miss at least one contest before potentially getting back on the floor for Wednesday's game against Minnesota.

Allen won't return to Saturday's game against the Suns after suffering a left ankle injury.

EDGE Analysis

Allen appeared to suffer the injury after attempting to block a shot during the third quarter, per Omari Sankofa II of The Athletic, and he was unable to put much weight on it as he headed to the locker room. The 24-year-old will likely be considered questionable at best for Monday's game versus the Rockets.

Allen played 21 minutes off the bench and provided 13 points (4-14 FG, 1-6 3PT, 4-4 FT), five rebounds, two steals and one assist in Tuesday's 120-91 loss to the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Allen led the bench in scoring against the Lakers, playing the majority of the fourth-quarter minutes as a result of the blowout. It's clear the Grizzlies will prioritize developing their youth in what figures to be a down 2019-20 campaign, but where Allen fits in the minutes quagmire remains to be seen. He's averaged 18.5 through four contests, although the team is missing a number of frontcourt options that could potentially cut Allen's playing time slightly.

Allen pitched in eight points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, and two assists in 24 minutes during Monday's 120-99 loss to the Hornets.

EDGE Analysis

Allen drew the start at shooting guard after thriving off the bench through two preseason appearances. However, it was Dillon Brooks, whom Allen replaced in the starting lineup, that had the better statistical showing in this one. It's unclear what the rotation will look like come opening night, but regardless neither Allen nor Brooks are good bets to hold value outside of deeper leagues.

Allen will start Monday's preseason game against Charlotte, David Cobb of The Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen gets the start in this one over Dillon Brooks, who's set to come off the bench. Allen has looked sharp in his first two preseason contests, averaging 18 points, four rebounds and 1.5 assists over 24.4 minutes, and he continues to make a strong case for a starting role with the regular season just around the corner.

Allen supplied 18 points (6-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-5 FT), five rebounds and three blocks across 26 minutes during the Grizzlies' 108-94 preseason win over New Zealand on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Allen put together a strong offensive performance for the second time in as many games to open the exhibition slate. The 2018 first-round pick of the Jazz is making a strong early case for a substantial role in the backcourt rotation come the regular season, with remaining preseason games set to provide a platform for him to potentially cement a solid amount of playing time to open the campaign.

Allen recorded 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-6 3Pt), three rebounds and three assists in 23 minutes Sunday against Maccabi Haifa.

EDGE Analysis

Allen was lights out in Sunday's exhibition game against the Israeli team Maccabi Haifa, drilling 70 percent of his shots and 66.7 percent of his threes. The former first-round pick, who joined the Grizzlies in the offseason as part of the Mike Conley deal, could see a sizable role off the Grizzlies bench this upcoming season, as his new team has a relative lack of talent compared to the Jazz.

Allen supplied 17 points (6-14 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three assists and two rebounds across 22 minutes during the Grizzlies' 87-75 win over the Clippers in a Las Vegas Summer League game Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Allen had been unable to suit up Saturday in the Grizzlies' summer league opener due to pending paperwork regarding the trade that brought him to Memphis, but he was in the starting five Sunday and co-led the team in scoring. The 2018 first-round pick of the Jazz is an intriguing prospect heading into his sophomore season, as he appears to have a much clearer path to playing time with his new team, especially now that Delon Wright has been traded to the Mavericks.
