Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Puts up double-double off bench

Allen (knee) logged 10 points (5-5 FG), 10 rebounds, one steal and one block across 21 minutes off the bench in Friday's 102-92 win over the Grizzlies.

Analysis:

After a three-game absence prior to the All-Star break, Allen was cleared to play Friday after taking part in morning shootaround and pregame warmups, but he was forced to settle back on the bench with Thaddeus Young (wrist) also returning. Allen didn't let the demotion bother him much though, as he submitted his second double-double of the season. Though February has been Allen's most productive month of the season, he's averaging 7.4 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.0 assist in 23.5 minutes per game in those eight appearances, so he still won't return value in most fantasy leagues.
