Allen (knee, hamstring) will start Monday versus the Magic, Rob Fischer of Fox Sports Southeast reports.
EDGE Analysis
After missing the previous two contests, Allen will return to action Monday in the starting lineup. Given his absence was relatively shorts, and that he is back in the starting lineup, expect him to take on his usual workload. Matt Barnes has been relegated to a reserve role with Allen's return.

Allen (knee, hamstring) will play in Monday's game against the Magic.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was listed as probable after missing the past two games, but he'll return to action Monday. It's unlikely that he's limited in his return and he'll likely see a normal minutes load. If he is limited at all look for Matt Barnes to see some extra time.

Allen (knee, hamstring) is now being listed as probable for Monday's game against the Magic, Ronald Tillery of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen was previously labeled as a game-time decision following Monday's morning shootaround, but the Grizzlies now seem to have more optimism about the swingman's availability for the contest. Though Allen had been starting at small forward prior to missing two games with the injuries, it's unclear if Allen will displace Matt Barnes from the lineup if he's ultimately cleared to play.

Allen (knee) participated in shootaround Monday and will be a game time decision for Monday's game against Magic, Rob Fischer, sideline reporter of the Memphis Grizzlies reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has missed one game due to soreness in his knee and additional hamstring concerns. Matt Barnes has been starting in Allen's absence, but should Allen return, Barnes would go back to a bench role. It appears likely that Allen's injury isn't super serious and that he could suit up tonight against the Magic.

Allen (knee/hamstring) won't take the court Saturday in Minnesota, Rob Fischer of FOX Sports Southeast reports.
EDGE Analysis
Prior to the contest, Allen attempted to return from a one-game absence due to knee and hamstring concerns, but that will extend to two outings Saturday. His next chance to suit up arrives Monday versus the Magic.

Allen (knee) will try to play Saturday against Minnesota, Ronald Tillery of The Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen has been slowed by knee and hamstring issues of late and missed Thursday's game against Denver, but it appears that he'll try to play through the ailments Saturday against the Timberwolves. Matt Barnes played 36 minutes at small forward in Allen's absence Thursday and could be in line for another start if Allen is ruled out.

Allen (kene) is questionable to play Saturday in Minnesota, Rob Fischer of Fox Sports Southeast reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen missed the Grizzlies' previous game on Thursday versus Denver, and will likely be a game-time decision in Minnesota Saturday due to knee soreness. If he cannot go, Matt Barnes will likely step into the starting lineup again. Expect an update on his status closer to tip-off Saturday.

Allen (knee, hamstring) has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Nuggets, Ronald Tillery of the Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen played seven minutes less than his season average during Monday's game against the Pelicans, so it seemed as if something could be up. He's dealing with soreness to both his left knee and hamstring, so he'll receive the night off Thursday for recovery. Look for Matt Barnes to move into the starting lineup in his place and see a slight increase in his overall minutes. Allen's next opportunity to play will be Saturday's game against the Timberwolves, so for now consider him questionable for that outing as well.

Allen (knee,hamstring) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Nuggets, Ronald Tillery of the Commercial Appeal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Allen is dealing with some soreness in his left knee and hamstring which could result in him spending Thursday night on the bench. The veteran guard has only missed five games this season and has started all but seven of the games he has played in. If he is held out, look for Matt Barnes and Vince Carter to see a bump in playing time.

Allen recorded six points (2-5 FG, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, two steals, and one assist in 24 minutes during the Grizzlies' 101-99 win against the Pelicans on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Allen is averaging 9.4 points (45.9 FG, 60.0 3Pt, 71.4 FT), 7.6 rebounds, two steals, 1.4 assists, and 0.2 blocks in 31 minutes per contest over the last five games. He still provides solid defense, but his fantasy production has proven to be equally mediocre as a starter and off the bench. Nevertheless, the Grizzlies are now five games above .500 for the first time all season, and it's possible coach Dave Joerger will settle in with Courtney Lee and Allen as the starting wing duo long-term.
