Ray Allen tweaked his ankle early in Friday's contest, but stayed in the game and finished with five points, two rebounds, and three assists in 27 minutes. Allen hit 2-of-5 shots from the field (1-of-3 from deep) and these are the types of nights he could have in a bench role with or without the ankle situation, but we'd tend to think the ankle had something to do with this result, regardless. Don't panic over the one outing, as Allen should be able to hold late round value coming off the bench with a near-elite amount of threes this season.
