Wizards' Lavoy Allen: Headed to camp with Wizards
Lavoy Allen has agreed to join the Washington Wizards for training camp, Candace Buckner of the Washington Post reports.After six years split between the 76ers and Pacers, Allen was unable to attract interest last season and was out of the league entirely. He did, however, get some run in with the G-League's Northern Arizona Suns, where he played in 10 games and averaged 9.0 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.1 blocks. He's got plenty of experience, so the Wizards are willing to bring him in for camp to see what he could potentially provide. If Allen does surprisingly make the roster, he'd likely be buried at power forward behind the likes of Markieff Morris, Jeff Green and Jason Smith.

Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Available to play Sunday vs. Raptors
Lavoy Allen (knee) is available to play Sunday against the Raptors, Nate Taylor of the Indianapolis Star reports.Allen has missed the last two games with a knee injury, but after testing it out during pregame warmups, he's officially been given the green light to take the court.

Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Questionable Sunday vs. Raptors
Lavoy Allen (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raptors.Allen has been dogged by left knee soreness since before the All-Star break, missing the Indiana Pacers' last two contests as a result. The team hasn't provided much of an update on his health heading into Sunday, so it looks like the veteran big man could be in store to miss another game. Kevin Seraphin would be the main beneficiary if Allen sits out again.

Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Ruled out Wednesday vs. Hornets

He's averaged just 12.5 minutes across the last four contests that he was active, so his absence should drastically change the Pacers' regular rotation. If anything, Kevin Seraphin could pick up some extra minutes behind Thaddeus Young at power forward.

Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Will not play Tuesday
Lavoy Allen (knee) will not play Tuesday's game against the Knicks.Allen came into Tuesday's contest listed as questionable with knee soreness, and it appears as though the pain is too much for the power forward to play through as of now. Allen previously missed three straight contests before the All-Star break and two straight contests earlier in March with knee problems, so it looks as though those issues could be lingering. Look for Rakeem Christmas to serve as the primary reserve in the frontcourt Tuesday in Allen's absence.

Pacers' Lavoy Allen: Questionable Tuesday with sore knee
Lavoy Allen is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks with left knee soreness.Allen missed two consecutive games with soreness in the same knee a little over a week ago, so it appears the injury has resurfaced. The big man has played in the last three contests, but is averaging just 3.0 points and 3.0 rebounds in 10.0 minutes per game, so his potential absence wouldn't have a drastic impact on the Indiana Pacers rotation.

Lavoy Allen (knee) is active and available to play in Wednesday's game against the Bucks, Nate Taylor of the Indianapolis Star reports.Allen has missed the last two contests with a knee injury, but is good to go for Wednesday after testing the injury out during pregame warmups. Look for Allen to slot back in as the backup to Thaddeus Young at power forward, which likely means less minutes for Kevin Seraphin in the frontcourt. Allen could see his playing time limited in his first game back from injury.
