Grizzlies swingman Tony Allen will not play Monday vs. Timberwolves

Tony Allen will not play Monday due to a stomach illness, Rob Fischer of Fox Sports reports.

Analysis:

Owners using Allen for his ability to grab steals will have to look elsewhere Monday night. The extent of the illness is not yet known, so a timetable is difficult to predict. In any case, Allen's next chance to return will be Wednesday in Utah.
