Tony Allen

Pelicans' Tony Allen (knee) likely to play on Friday against Denver

According to Pelicans.com's Daniel Sallerson, New Orleans Pelicans coach Alvin Gentry said guard/forward Tony Allen "will most likely play tomorrow night" against the Denver Nuggets.

What It Means:

Allen has missed three games with left knee inflammation and might not be much of a factor in the team's rotation. Darius Miller has been playing very well of late and Dante Cunningham's seeing minutes at small forward.

Over a projected 17.1 minutes, Allen is expected to produce 13.3 FanDuel points with 6.0 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.0 assists on Friday against the Nuggets.
