Grayson Allen finished Monday’s win over the Cavaliers with 27 points (8-of-14 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), four rebounds, six assists, two steals and six three-pointers.
Despite playing without Brandon Miller and Kon Knueppel, the Hornets ended their six-game losing streak on Monday. Shots that weren’t falling during that unfortunate run did so against the Cavaliers, with Allen leading the way. He recorded his fifth 20-point game of the season, matching his season high with 27 points and shooting 6-of-12 from beyond the arc. With Knueppel (hamstring) out for another three-plus weeks, Allen is worth adding wherever he’s available.
