Grayson Allen will miss his second game in a row on Tuesday when the Phoenix Suns take on the Portland Trail Blazers.

Allen suffered an injury to his right hamstring on Thursday in a blowout win over the Indiana Pacers and sat out against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday.

Allen and Jalen Green, who is also dealing with a right hamstring injury, will both miss the Tuesday matchup in Portland, while two-way guard Koby Brea will be with the Valley Suns in the G League and unavailable to the NBA club.

For the Trail Blazers, they will be without Scoot Henderson (left hamstring), Damian Lillard (left Achilles tendon), Matisse Thybulle (left thumb) and Blake Wesley (right foot).

Guard Jrue Holiday is also out with right calf soreness. It is the second consecutive game Holiday will miss. He was previously listed as “doubtful” but was ruled out before tip.

Also, for Portland, Jerami Grant (illness) was ruled out an hour before Tuesday’s game. He showed up as “questionable” two hours before the game’s start before receiving the “out” designation an hour later.

Tuesday will be the first matchup of the season between Portland and Phoenix.

The game will be televised on Peacock and can be heard on 98.7 and the Arizona Sports app with tip off at 9:00 p.m.

Btw, maybe I missed it but I do not recall an article here about the passing of Coach Lenny Wilkens. Great man. Awesome coach. RIP✊🏾

Do you think the fact that modern athletes are bigger stronger faster than ever before AND have to run much more every game has something to do with this? Not to mention career longevity... Or do you just think young people are soft?

I thought it was a quad contusion...not a hamstring...that kept Grayson out of the Atlanta game?
