Available for neutral game Allen (ankle) is available for Friday's game against Tulane at Charleston, according to Scott Garrard of 97.5/1280 KSL Sports Zone.

Impact Utah State will not ease Allen into action, with the Aggies' starting lineup getting him back for their neutral game Friday. This comes as no surprise considering how well he played in their 2025-26 season's first three games, best defined by his 7.0 assists and 3.3 steals per game. By adding some better scoring, Allen would be as complete as a guard can be.

Expected to face Tulane Utah State head coach Jerrod Calhoun said Saturday that Allen (ankle) should be able to play Friday against Tulane, Jason Walker of the CacheValley Daily reports.

Impact Allen missed Saturday's game against UTEP due to a sprained right ankle. However, the 6-foot-5 senior isn't expected to miss any more contests. He has started in all three of his appearances this season, and is averaging 4.7 points, 2.7 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 3.3 steals.

Likely out Saturday Head coach Jerrod Calhoun revealed that Allen (ankle) suffered a high ankle sprain and will likely miss Saturday's matchup against UTEP, per Jason Walker of Cache Valley Daily.

Impact It's a tough break for Allen, who had been seemingly finding his groove with the Aggies prior to his injury. Following a slow start in his first game with Utah State, the 6-foot-5 senior had averaged 5.5 points, four rebounds and nine assists across the team's last two games before going down. His timeline to return is thus far unknown, but his absence for Saturday's contest seems to be all but assured. He will have some time to rest up before his next chance to return against Tulane next Friday.

Out for extended time Allen (shoulder) is expected to miss 4-6 weeks, per Scott Garrard of KSLSports.com.

Impact It's tough news for Allen, who was previously thought to be day-to-day with a right shoulder injury. The senior guard suffered the injury in the first half of last week's game against UC San Diego and was subsequently held out of the rest of the game. Allen has been an important player for the Aggies this season, averaging 6.3 points and 3.7 assists per game through 11 contests. With Allen expected to be out for extended time, fellow guard Deyton Albury is expected to shoulder an increased role.

Won't return Tuesday Allen was spotted on the bench in street clothes and with a sling on his right arm, according to The Aggship.

Impact Allen left the game against UC San Diego during the first half, and now it's official that he won't return, meaning Deyton Albury will probably take his place in the backcourt. Depending on the severity of the injury, it remains to be seen if Allen would be able to suit up against St. Mary's (CAL) on Sunday.

Allen is expected to return against Utah next Saturday after an MRI revealed no significant damage to his right ankle.
