Allen will start against Philadelphia on Wednesday, Keith Pompey of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Analysis:

Allen is typically a role player for the Pacers, but he'll start against Philadelphia due to Coach Frank Vogel opting to go with a bigger lineup. It's unlikely that Allen will receive much of a minutes boost even with start, and he'll likely return to a bench role after Wednesday's tilt.
