Posts 18 points in win
Allen logged 18 points (7-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), three rebounds, six assists and one steal over 34 minutes during Tuesday's 106-102 victory over the Nets.
Analysis
Allen produced a solid line with Devin Booker (ankle) and Jalen Green (hamstring) on the sidelines. Allen's result was a vast improvement from his previous game, where he connected on only four shots in 18 attempts. After taking 11 shots beyond the arc against the Heat, Allen's shot selection was more measured against Brooklyn, and the more conservative approach worked to his advantage.

Poor shooting in starting role
Allen logged 18 points (4-18 FG, 1-11 3Pt, 9-10 FT), six rebounds and three assists in 35 minutes during Sunday's 111-102 loss to Miami.
Analysis
Allen made just his second start since Dec. 14 due to Devin Booker (ankle) and Jalen Green (hamstring) being sidelined and had a rough night shooting the ball. He did manage to get to the line frequently, converting a season-high nine free throws, but the 30-year-old's cold showing from deep stood out given his reputation as a perimeter shooter. The Duke product's outside shooting has dipped this season overall, as Allen entered the game hitting 37.5 percent from three across 28 appearances after clearing 40.0 percent in each of the previous two regular seasons.

Starting Sunday
Allen will start Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis
Allen enters the starting lineup due to Devin Booker (ankle) being out of the lineup. Allen could see an increase in usage offensively while Booker and Jalen Green (hamstring) are out.

Leads bench in loss
Allen totaled 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four steals, three rebounds and three assists across 30 minutes during Friday's 110-103 loss to Atlanta.
Analysis
Although Allen struggled from three-point range, he was efficient from inside the arc and led the Suns' bench in scoring. He also led all players in steals, matching his season high in swipes. The veteran swingman has mainly operated off the bench of late, though he's a top candidate to enter the starting five if Devin Booker (ankle) is forced to miss additional time.
