Impact After spending the past three years in Phoenix, Allen will join a retooling Charlotte squad that has now traded away LaMelo Ball and Bridges this offseason. Allen is coming off arguably the best year of his career, averaging 16.5 points, 3.8 assists, 3.0 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 28.8 minutes per game across 51 outings (27 starts). However, he shot just 40.3 percent from the field and 34.9 percent from deep, a significant dip from the 2024-25 campaign. He figures to play a significant role off the bench for Charlotte and will likely compete for minutes with Sion James and Tre Mann.

Impact A hamstring injury might have plagued him during Phoenix's brief playoff run, but there's no question that Allen was a particularly effective nine-category fantasy asset when healthy in 2025-26. Across 51 regular-season contests, the veteran swingman averaged a career-high 16.5 points, 3.8 assists, 3.0 rebounds, 1.4 steals and 3.1 three-pointers in 28.8 minutes per game.
