Grayson Allen Probable for Suns’ Game with Grizzlies on December 31st Despite Head Injury
Grayson Allen of the Phoenix Suns is in concussion protocol but is expected to play in the upcoming game against the Memphis Grizzlies on December 31st. He has been dealing with a head injury since December 21st, which caused him to miss several games. His status is now listed as probable, indicating he may return to action soon.
What It Means
Allen’s return could provide a boost to the Suns’ roster. This season, he has averaged 10.4 points per game and made 2.2 three-pointers per game with a shooting percentage of 37.6% from beyond the arc. His presence on the court can contribute to spreading defenses and opening up opportunities for teammates.
The team has relied on players like Bradley Beal and Royce O’Neale during Allen’s absence. Beal leads with an average of 19 points per game while O’Neale adds depth at forward positions. If Allen plays, it could offer more flexibility in rotations and help stabilize their wing defense against opponents like the Grizzlies.
