Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Ruled out Thursday vs. Wizards

Allen (knee) won't play in Thursday's matchup with the Wizards.

Analysis:

Allen worked out in pregame warmups to test his knee and it was determined that he wasn't yet ready to return to action. Thursday will mark the third consecutive game his missed due his injury. Kevin Seraphin started in place of Allen the past two games and likely will once again. With the All-Star break coming up, Allen will have until next week Friday to recover and return to action for the Pacers' game against the Grizzlies.
