Allen is averaging 2.2 steals per game this season after recording seven steals Monday night versus the Knicks.

Analysis:

Allen added 14 points (6-8 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one block in 26 minutes of action versus the Knicks. His offensive contributions are extremely inconsistent, but he remains one of the top perimeter defenders in the NBA. If you're in desperate need of steals and can deal with Allen's lackluster production in other categories, he might be worth adding.
