Jarrett Allen not practicing Thursday

Jarrett Allen did not practice Thursday due to a rib contusion. He was observed stretching and receiving treatment, but did not participate in any practice activities. Head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said that Allen will travel with the team to Orlando and attempt to play, but it sounds like this will be a game time decision. (Tom Withers on X)
Fantasy Impact:
If Allen doesn't play, Evan Mobley will play a vital role in this crucial Game 6 against the Magic. Somewhat surprisingly, Georges Niang did not play at all during Game 5. It is reasonable to assume that Isaac Okoro will once again start at the power forward position while Mobley slides over to center. Marcus Morris Sr. could also see increased minutes if Allen misses.
