Allen (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Suns, Pete Pranica of Fox Sports Southeast reports.

EDGE Analysis

Allen was ruled doubtful earlier in the day, so it comes as no surprise he'll remain sidelined for an eighth straight game. With that being said, look for P.J. Hairston, Vince Carter and Lance Stephenson to share the additional minutes made available through Allen's absence. His next opportunity to return will be Monday versus the Cavaliers.
