Allen (hamstring) said he's "more than likely" playing in Sunday's Game 1, Rob Fischer of Sports 56 WHBQ in Memphis reports.

Allen hasn't played since the end of March while nursing a hamstring injury. Both he and Mike Conley (foot) are aiming to play Sunday, though a decision likely won't come until after Saturday's session.

Allen will take the opportunity to rest up for the playoffs, meaning more minutes for Jeff Green, Courtney Lee and Vince Carter in the final game of the season.

Allen (hamstring) remains hopeful for a return against the Pacers on Wednesday, The Commercial Appeal reports.

Allen is not currently with the team on their road trip which means that he'll be missing the next two games before the season finale Wednesday. The backcourt of Memphis is also dealing with the prolonged absence of Mike Conley (foot), resulting in added minutes for Beno Udrih.

Allen (hamstring) will miss at least the next week, FOX Sports Tennessee reports.

Absent for four consecutive contests due an injured left hamstring, Allen is nearly assured to sit out the remainder of the regular season. After the Grizzlies' current four-game homestand concludes Wednesday against the Pelicans, the team will examine the defensive menace during the Grizzlies' upcoming three-game road trip. Expect Vince Carter to receive a few extra minutes during Allen's stay on the sidelines.

Allen (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game versus the Wizards, the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Out for a fourth consecutive contest due to a left hamstring issue, Allen's next chance to take the court arrives Wednesday against the Pelicans. In his stead, Vince Carter is a decent bet to earn additional run.

Allen (hamstring) won't play Friday against the Thunder, Clay Bailey of the Commercial Appeal reports.

Allen was considered doubtful earlier in the day, so it comes as no surprise that he will indeed sit out. His next chance to return will come Saturday against the Wizards.

Allen (hamstring) did not go through shootaround and is listed as doubtful for Friday's game, Michael Wallace of ESPN reports.

Allen injured his hamstring a week ago against the Warriors, and he's missed the Grizzlies' last two games. He's among the toughest players in the league, but after sitting out a couple of practices, as well as shootaround, it's difficult to imagine him playing Friday.

Allen (hamstring) remains questionable for Friday's game against the Thunder, Michael Wallace of ESPN reports.

Allen continues to battle a hamstring issue, and coach Dave Joerger did not sound optimistic about his chances to play Friday. That said, a ruling won't come until Friday, so continue to keep an eye on Allen's progress.

Allen (hamstring) is out for Monday's game against the Kings, and he's without a return timetable, Ronald Tillery of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports.

Allen sustained a left hamstring injury Friday, and he missed Sunday's game against San Antonio. With the playoffs approaching, the Grizzlies won't rush Allen back, so expect Vince Carter and Courtney Lee to continue to pick up some extra minutes in the short-term. It sounds like Allen could miss a few more games, but until official confirmation is handed down by the team, consider him day-to-day. After Monday, Memphis' next game doesn't come until Friday versus Oklahoma City.

Allen (hamstring) will not play Sunday against the Spurs Sideline Reporter Rob Fischer reports.

Allen missed the end of the Grizzlies' previous game, but that game was a blowout, so the severity of the injury was unknown. Look for Jeff Green and Courtney Lee to soak up the minutes left by Allen on Sunday.

Allen suffered a left hamstring injury in the third quarter of Friday's game against the Warriors. He didn't return to the game, but it was also out of hand going into the fourth, with the Warriors holding a commanding lead. If Allen is out, it would guarantee more minutes for Jeff Green and Courtney Lee.

Allen suffered a left hamstring injury in the third quarter of Friday's game against the Warrior and is questionable to return, Grizzlies' sideline reporter Rob Fischer reports.

Allen's status for the remainder of Friday's game remains up in the air, but it sounds as though the issue is minor. If he doesn't return, his next chance to rejoin the lineup will come Sunday against the Spurs.

Allen scored 10 points (4-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT) with 11 rebounds, one assist and six steals in 35 minutes Saturday.

Allen is an elite option for steals, averaging a career-high 2.1 steals this season, but at the moment, that's not all he is bringing. The Grindfather is averaging 11.5 points and 8.0 rebounds in his last four games, and with three games of at least six steals this season, Allen can swing that category in head-to-head matchups in the playoffs.

Allen returned to the starting lineup Friday against the Mavericks. He scored 13 points (5-8 FG, 3-8 FT) and added seven rebounds, one assist, and two steals in 32 minutes.

Even off the bench on Tuesday, Allen still played 31 minutes. The shifting into and out of the starting lineup will have minimal impact on his fantasy value as long as his minutes remain this steady.

Allen scored 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-4 FT) to go along with nine rebounds, two assists and one steal in 35 minutes Monday against the Nuggets.

Allen has increased his scoring of late as he is averaging 12.5 points over his last four games compared to his season average of 8.5. He is always a valuable source for steals, but he could really increase his fantasy value if he could continue with this increased offensive production.

Allen suited up for the Grizzlies on Saturday, after a one-game absence, scoring nine points (4-12 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT) with three rebounds, one assist and four steals in 32 minutes.

Allen is averaging a ridiculous 2.8 steals in his last six games, while also shooting a crazy 63 percent from the floor. While the shooting will undoubtedly cool off, the steals appear real, as Allen is averaging a career-high this season, nabbing 2.0 steals per game. If you need steals, there is no better option on waiver-wires than the Grindfather.

Allen (rest) will not play Thursday against the Wizards, Jon Roser of ESPN 92.9 FM in Memphis reports.

The Grizzlies will give a number of regulars the night off Thursday, as Zach Randolph and Marc Gasol will also be rested, while Mike Conley sits out with an ankle injury. That means Courtney Lee and Jeff Green are the only regular starters expected to play, so Nick Calathes, Beno Udrih, Jon Leuer and Kosta Koufos will each see bumps in value.

Allen scored 16 points (7-9 FG, 2-2 FT) with five rebounds, two assists, two steals and two blocks in 27 minutes off the bench Wednesday.

He's been ornery since his one-game suspension for a scrap with Nick Calathes in practice, averaging 12.2 points, 5.6 boards and 2.6 steals over his last five games. Allen's fantasy value is capped by his role on the second unit, but he remains an excellent source of steals while still chipping in decent production otherwise.

Allen had 12 points (6-9 FG), eight rebounds and two steals in 27 minutes on Wednesday.

Allen sat out Tuesday's game with the Utah Jazz because of a physical altercation he had with backup guard Nick Calathes during practice. He came back with his one of his best games since the start of February. He can give you steals but is very inconsistent in other areas of his game.
