Allen will start Friday against the Heat, Nate Taylor of the Indianapolis Star reports.

Analysis:

Reports state that the Pacers are starting more of a traditional lineup, so that also means C.J. Miles will play off the bench and Paul George will likely slide back into the small forward position. The move is likely being made to matchup better with Miami's long, athletic frontcourt of Chris Bosh and Hassan Whiteside.
