Allen recorded five points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, three assists and five steals in 32 minutes during the Grizzlies' 97-89 win versus the Pacers on Friday.
Allen now has eight steals through two games, and while he has always been known more as a tough defender than a ball thief, his career 1.3 steals per game average has come during only 21 minutes per game. So long as he continues to receive 30 or more minutes per game, which is likely given what he brings to the defensive end, he should post solid steal totals. However, his lack of consistent scoring production typically limits his value outside of deeper leagues.
