Allen will move into the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Spurs, Rob Fischer of Sports56WHBQ in Memphis reports.

Analysis:

The Grizzlies are employing a small lineup to start Friday's game in an effort to change things up after two lopsided losses in the first two games of the series. Allen will get the start at shooting guard while Vince Carter slides to the three and Matt Barnes takes over at power forward. Chris Anderson was taken out of the lineup in order to make room for Allen. In the first two games of the series, Allen averaged 9.5 points and 3.0 rebounds over 21 minutes.
