Allen (knee) will be available Monday against the Cavaliers, Rob Fischer of Sports 56 WHBQ in Memphis reports.

Analysis:

While the Grizzlies will be without a number of regulars Monday, Allen will return after missing the last eight games with a sore left knee. While the team will likely try to limit his minutes in his first game back, coach Dave Joerger may be forced to play Allen for extended stretches given the lack of depth due to injury.
