Grayson Allen finished Friday’s surprising win over the Jazz with 21 points, seven rebounds, six assists, two steals, one block and seven three-pointers across 36 minutes.
Allen was hot from beyond the arc, as all of his points came from three-point range. His two biggest buckets came in the final two seconds of regulation when he hit a three to bring the score within one and then another three as time expired to tie it up and send the game to overtime. Allen then scored the first points of the extra period with yet another triple before turning things over to Devin Booker and Royce O’Neale to close things out. This is arguably Allen’s best game of the season, and he should continue to play a larger role on offense for as long as Bradley Beal or Kevin Durant are sidelined.
