Ray Allen hasn't decided about picking up his player option for next season and will address it after the NBA Finals.
There is no rush for Allen to make his decision, and if the Heat go on to beat the Spurs, it would seem like a no-brainer that Allen returns to Miami. It's always possible he decides to hang up the sneakers as well and goes out on top as a champion, but retirement doesn't seem to be something he's currently considering. Jun 5 - 1:51 PM

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Erik Spoelstra praised Ray Allen, saying he's been "exactly what we wanted this year."

"He's a fourth-quarter killer with the mindset that you have to know and be aware of where he is at all times in the fourth quarter," Spoelstra said. Allen averages 10 minutes during the fourth-quarter, the highest average during his 17-year career. "He creates more space for our best players," Spoelstra added.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen made all 10 free throws attempts in Game 2's 115-78 win over the Bulls and had a game-high 21 points with three boards, one steal, one block, one 3-pointer and no turnovers in 19 minutes.

He set his season high for free throw makes on the opening night of the regular season with seven and made averaged just 1.8 per game all year. Allen has stepped it up in the playoffs and he's scored at least 20 points in three of the six games. He scored at least 20 in just seven of his 79 games this regular season. Miami hasn't played many close games, but it's nice to see that one of the best shooters ever still has it.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen made four 3-pointers in Sunday's 88-77 win over the Bucks, scoring 16 points, seven boards, one steal and one turnover.

He set the record earlier in the series for most career 3-pointers in the postseason and he's been a big part of Miami's success while Dwyane Wade recovers from his ailing knee. Allen hit five 3-pointers in Game 3 on Thursday and he's a great complementary piece on the perimeter with LeBron James slashing to the basket.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen hit 6-of-13 shots and two 3-pointers on his way to 20 points, five rebounds, three assists and two steals in an easy Game 1 win over the Bucks.

Allen played very well and his outside shooting should be a key for the Heat as they plan on making a run deep into the playoffs.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen hit 8-of-18 shots and a 3-pointer for 23 points, six rebounds, four assists and three steals in Wednesday's win over the Wizards.

Allen even turned back the clock and dunked tonight, and clearly benefitted by LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh watching in street clothes. The 23 points tied his season high, but the other one came way back on Nov. 3.
Apr 10 - 10:49 PM
Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen (ankle) played 27 minutes off the bench vs. Philadelphia, scoring 11 points with three 3-pointers, two rebounds and two assists.

Allen had surgery to remove bone spurs in his ankles this summer, but he recently said he's "80 percent" healthy, and it seems he's been playing through discomfort all season. The good news is that he only missed one game due to soreness this week, and his three triples tonight should satisfy most owners.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen will warm up with the intention to play on Saturday.

He missed Friday's game to rest his ankle, which was not a surprise since he said that he's only at 80 percent health. He's not a must-start to begin with, so he'll be a risky play against Philly. Allen is also very likely to get rested at some other point and his fantasy value subsequently takes a hit.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Erik Spoelstra was non-committal when asked about Ray Allen's status for Saturday night.

Allen sat out Friday's game with an ankle injury and admitted recently that his ankle is only 80 percent healthy. We wouldn't be surprised if the Heat decide to hold him out for a few games as the playoffs get closer. Shane Battier would likely eat up Allen's minutes again if he sat.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen (ankle) will not play on Friday against the Bobcats.

Allen previously said that his ankle is only 80 percent healthy, so some extra time off will do him well. Shane Battier will play the sixth man role and could see 30-plus minutes with Miami's skeleton crew.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen (ankle) is not expected to play on Friday against the Bobcats.

Allen made some waves when he said his ankle is only 80 percent healthy, and although he's going to be as healthy as he will be this season, the extra time off couldn't hurt. Shane Battier and Mike Miller will see a few extra minutes apiece if Allen sits.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen admitted that his ankle is "only about 80 percent."

Allen's ankle issues aren't going away and will likely be an issue for the remainder of his career. However, it's not expected to force him out of action any time soon. "I like the pounding of my joints," Allen said. He had 16 points in Tuesday's loss and is shooting 42.4 percent from distance this year.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen shot the ball well in Tuesday's 102-90 loss to the Knicks, making 5-of-7 from the field for 16 points with one board, two assists, two steals and one 3-pointer.

He played 26 minutes and made all five free throws. Allen has been stepping it up with LeBron James (hamstring) and Dwyane Wade (ankle) out and scored 14 points on Sunday. He should be viewed as a hold in standard formats, but he'll probably get some rest at some point.

Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen was cut on the mouth and went to the locker room in the fourth quarter of Friday's game.

He just cut his lip and there really shouldn't be much concern once the bleeding stops. If you're wondering why Allen isn't getting minutes to start the fourth, this is why.
Mar 22 - 9:39 PM
Ray Allen - G - Heat

Ray Allen scored 20 points with four 3-pointers on Sunday, as the Heat rolled to their 22nd consecutive victory.

Allen scored 16 of his points in the fourth quarter alone, ensuring that Miami's streak would go unbroken. He's locked into a 20-25 minute bench role and continues to provide low-end value for points, 3-pointers and low-volume, high-percentage FT shooting.
