Suns’ Grayson Allen ruled out for Game 4, Timberwolves’ Kyle Anderson available

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen was ruled out for Sunday’s Game 4 against the Minnesota Timberwolves, head coach Frank Vogel said pregame. Allen was listed questionable to begin the day.

Royce O’Neale will start in Allen’s place for the second-straight game after he was held scoreless over 24 minutes in Game 3, shooting 0-for-4 from 3 and missing his only 2-point attempt.

Allen sprained his right ankle in the Game 1 loss, but attempted to play through the injury in Game 2. Early in the second half of Game 2, Allen tweaked his ankle again and was ruled out for the rest of the game.
