Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen experienced a re-injury to his right ankle during Game 2 of their playoff series against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Head coach Frank Vogel confirmed the injury, revealing that X-rays showed no significant damage and that Allen’s status would be evaluated day by day.

This setback occurred after Allen had initially hurt the same ankle in Game 1 and was questionable for Game 2. Despite ongoing treatment, Allen started the game and played for 17 minutes before suffering the re-injury during the third quarter.

The incident took place when Allen landed on the foot of Minnesota point guard Mike Conley Jr. while defending against a layup attempt. Allen needed assistance to the locker room following the play. The 28-year-old, who recently inked a lucrative contract extension with Phoenix, has been a crucial contributor to the team, averaging 13.5 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 3.0 assists per game while shooting efficiently from the field.

During Allen’s time on the court in Game 2, the Suns outscored the Timberwolves, but Minnesota gained an advantage in his absence, outscoring Phoenix by 13 points. With Allen sidelined, the Suns reduced their rotation from eight to seven players, with Royce O’Neale filling in.

Despite a strong performance from Eric Gordon off the bench, the Suns struggled against the Timberwolves, who showcased superior depth and performance from their key players.

The injury complicates matters for the Suns, who were already dealing with adversity following a significant loss in Game 1. With the series now at 2-0 in favor of the Timberwolves, the Suns are under pressure to quickly turn things around.

Vogel may need to adjust the rotation or consider adding another player to compensate for Allen’s absence. However, with Game 3 looming, there’s uncertainty surrounding Allen’s availability and his ability to recover in time to contribute effectively.
