Rotowire
Allen twisted his ankle during Sunday's 115-110 loss to the Magic and will be re-evaluated Monday, Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix reports.
The severity of Allen's injury likely won't be uncovered until his re-evaluation is completed, but fortunately, the Suns don't play again until Friday against the Magic. He'll be considered day-to-day until the team has more information to share. Allen played 22 minutes in Sunday's loss, finishing with 13 points (3-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one steal.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Drop 16 points in loss
Rotowire
Allen recorded 16 points (5-10 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds, four assists and two steals across 30 minutes during Saturday's 121-111 loss to the Heat.
Allen provided much-needed support from the bench as the Suns continue to struggle without Kevin Durant (ankle) and Jusuf Nurkic (thigh). Allen converted a season-high five three-pointers in the loss during a night where his shot attempts were limited to the perimeter. Allen recorded 30 minutes in defeat, and he should continue to hover around that number while the team struggles with injuries.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Double-double off bench
Rotowire
Allen had 13 points (4-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, 10 assists, one block and one steal over 30 minutes during Thursday's 126-124 loss to New Orleans.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Moving to starting unit
Rotowire
Allen is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Warriors.
Allen will get the starting nod in this matchup due to the absence of Bradley Beal (calf). This will be Allen's first start of the campaign. The veteran forward is averaging 10.2 points, 2.6 rebounds and 1.1 assists per game in 14 outings off the bench this season.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Logs 17 points in loss
Rotowire
Allen ended with 17 points (5-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-7 FT), four rebounds and one assist in 29 minutes during Monday's 109-99 loss to the Magic.
Allen is getting back up to speed after missing two games, and his presence is sorely needed with Bradley Beal (calf) unavailable. The box score showed that Allen's totals didn't have much effect on Josh Okogie's participation in the injury scenario, which bodes well for both players' production moving forward.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Efficient 18 points in loss
Rotowire
Allen posted 18 points (6-10 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and one assist across 24 minutes during Sunday's 120-117 loss to the Timberwolves.
After a two-game absence due to right hamstring soreness, the 29-year-old led the bench with 18 points and finished as the second-highest scorer on the Suns behind Devin Booker (44). Allen has been a mainstay on the injury report this season while also taking a back seat to the club's new addition, Tyus Jones. Through 10 regular-season outings, Allen has averaged 9.9 points, 2.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists while shooting a lackluster 37.8 percent from the field across 21.1 minutes per game.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Lands four triples in win
Rotowire
Allen provided 15 points (5-10 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and one rebound across 26 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 win over Utah.
Allen connected on four three-pointers, continuing to serve as a scoring threat off the bench. After a breakout 2023-24 season, Allen's role has reduced following the offseason addition of Tyus Jones. Allen should continue to be a reliable perimeter threat and should any of the starting backcourt be forced to miss time, Allen would likely be the next man up.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Plays season-high 27 minutes
Rotowire
Allen posted nine points (3-13 FG, 3-11 3Pt), one rebound and three assists in 27 minutes during Sunday's 127-118 overtime loss to the Kings.
With Kevin Durant (calf) sidelined and Bradley Beal (knee) battling an in-game injury, Allen was afforded a season-high 27 minutes, but he failed to capitalize. The sharpshooter is shooting only 31.9 percent from deep this season, which would be a career-worst mark. Allen shot 46.1 percent from deep last season, so some positive regression should be on the horizon.
