OAKLAND – Memphis guard Tony Allen will not play in Game 5 of the Western Conference semifinals against the Warriors on Wednesday due to a sore left hamstring.
“It’s been an ongoing thing for him since the end of the season,” Grizzlies coach Dave Joerger said. “It’s not going to get healed and healthy until the offseason.
“It definitely has an impact on Klay Thompson and who we have chasing him around.”
