Brandin Podziemski has been playing well of late and prior to the Warriors last blowout loss to the Spurs had scored 20+ points in five consecutive games. The Warriors are shorthanded tonight and there are some blowout concerns here, however I expect that to be offset by a bump in usage for Podziemski.

Allen is getting back into the swing of things after a lengthy injury (10 missed games). He’s played in two of three, received only 18 minutes in each, but has been highly productive (18 pts, 10 reb in one, 18 pts, 4 reb in the other). Regardless of whether he gets a minutes boost here, Allen is in a spot to dominate the glass vs. the decimated Warriors. We don’t know if Kristaps Porzingis will play, in in the last four games matched up with Kristaps, Allen has rebound totals of 10, 12, 10 and 18. If it’s Draymond Green, Allen has 9, 5, 12 and 9 in his last four vs. him.
