Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hamstring) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves after missing the previous two contests due to a right hamstring strain. With both Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal out because of calf injuries, the 29-year-old is expected to have an expanded role and could see a significant increase in shot opportunities. Allen, who has been averaging nine points per game this season, will have a chance to contribute more offensively. Fantasy managers should monitor his status, as he could play a key role in Phoenix's lineup on Sunday.
According to Thunder reporter Nick Gallo, Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hamstring) will not play against Oklahoma City on Friday due to right hamstring soreness. Allen participated in the team's morning shootaround but will be sidelined for the second straight game. With Kevin Durant (calf) and Bradley Beal (calf) also unable to suit up, several players like Royce O'Neale, Ryan Dunn and Josh Okogie will likely see increased minutes.
Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hamstring) has been ruled for Wednesday's matchup with the Sacramento Kings due to soreness in his right hamstring. Bradley Beal (calf) will also be out with a calf injury. Devin Booker will be leaned on offensively with a depleted Suns rotation against the Kings, while extra minutes could exist for rookie Ryan Dunn and veteran Josh Okogie.
Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen has been removed from the injury report and will suit up on Monday against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 29-year-old was at shootaround getting some work in with the rest of the team and will likely see some added opportunities if Bradley Beal (elbow) is unable to give it a go. Allen is a good source of threes, some assists, and maybe a steal or two for fantasy managers competing in category leagues.
Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (personal) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Allen was on the injury report due to an Achilles issue, but will end up sitting out this game for personal reasons. His next chance to play would be on Saturday against the Dallas Mavericks. Allen finished with eight points and three assists in 21 minutes during the season opener. His absence could mean more minutes for Damion Lee, Royce O'Neale, or Ryan Dunn. None of them are likely to see a large enough increase to warrant streaming on Friday.
Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (Achilles) is available ahead of Wednesday's season opener against the Los Angeles Clippers. Allen missed the entire preseason due to a lingering Achilles issue. However, Allen has been cleared to play, but it's uncertain how much time on the court he'll see in the opener. Allen figures to be one of the Suns primary reserves off the bench throughout the season. He should be able to carve out consistent playing time, but the Suns might ease him back into action for the first few games. Allen is more of a deep league option and is avoidable for DFS contests on Wednesday.
Phoenix Suns forward Grayson Allen (Achilles) is anticipated to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The former Duke Blue Devil has been dealing with Achilles soreness and is uncertain to go for the Suns' opener. However, barring a setback, he should be good to go. Allen is coming off the best year of his career, averaging 13.5 points and shooting 46.1% from behind the arc. While he's anticipated to come off the bench in 2024-25, he'll see enough minutes to remain relevant for fantasy managers. His three-point prowess is an added boost for category participants.
Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (Achilles) is still working his way back from an Achilles injury and his status for the team's season opener is in doubt. The good news is that Allen said to Gerald Bourguet that he was able "to do everything" in practice on Monday and he's hopefully to be ready for their first game on Wednesday. Allen has been an important rotational piece for this team as a three-and-D type of player. Last season, he averaged 13.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.7 threes, and 1.3 turnovers while shooting a red-hot 46.1% from beyond the arc.
Phoenix Suns forward Grayson Allen (Achilles) logged another limited practice session on Tuesday. The 29-year-old, who signed a lucrative extension with Phoenix in April, has been dealing with Achilles soreness. While the Suns haven't ruled him out for opening night, there's a chance he may miss some games to begin the 2024-25 campaign. Allen averaged 13.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.0 assists last season. He also shot a career-high 46.1% from deep. Although Allen isn't expected to start consistently this season, he should see plenty of minutes, considering the Suns lack depth from off the bench. As a result, Allen is relevant for fantasy managers in any format. With that said, if he isn't on the floor when the Suns open the season against the Clippers on October 23, Royce O'Neale and Damion Lee may see more minutes.
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen is committed to staying healthy this season. While the former Duke Blue Devil logged 75 games during the regular season, he was limited in the playoffs due to injury. As a result, he hopes the time spent this offseason working on his body will allow him to remain on the floor. Allen, who signed a four-year, $70 million extension with the Suns in April, averaged 13.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.0 assists during the 2023-24 campaign. He also shot a career-high 46.1% from behind the arc. With Tyus Jones now on the roster, Allen may come off the bench. However, the Suns lack depth outside of the starting lineup, so the 28-year-old should continue to get enough minutes to remain relevant for fantasy managers.
