THE SEASON SO FAR
Grayson Allen’s opening stretch of the 2025-26 campaign was defined by wild volatility, oscillating between single-handed offensive carry jobs and defensive liabilities that ultimately forced a demotion to the bench. On 10/27 vs UTA, he poured in 23 points but registered a disastrous -14.5 impact score because his brutal perimeter efficiency squandered too many critical offensive possessions. Conversely, he delivered an absolute masterpiece on 11/10 vs NOP. Allen dropped 42 points and hit 10 threes to shatter the opponent's zone coverage, generating a massive +33.2 impact score through pure, thermonuclear shot-making. By January, severe shooting slumps pushed him out of the starting lineup. Operating as a reserve on 01/09 vs NYK, Allen missed all six of his three-point attempts to finish with just 10 points. Yet he still managed to post a positive +0.3 impact score by emptying the tank on the margins, relying on a stellar +4.0 hustle metric to salvage his nightly value.
An unapologetic, high-variance chucking marathon mixed with surprising defensive grit defined this midseason stretch for Grayson Allen. Even when his outside shot fell, hidden underlying issues often dragged down his actual value, perfectly illustrated on 02/03 vs POR when he dropped 24 points but still posted a -4.6 impact score. Conversely, he found ways to heavily tilt the math without dominating the scoring column. During a bench shift on 01/20 vs PHI, Allen managed a staggering +14.1 impact despite scoring just 16 points, relying entirely on elite defensive positioning and timely floor-spacing to fuel the lineup. His shot selection, however, frequently bordered on reckless. That trigger-happy approach backfired spectacularly on 01/25 vs MIA, where an abysmal 1-for-11 display from deep short-circuited the offense and saddled him with a -4.7 impact score. Ultimately, Allen became a chaotic pendulum, swinging wildly between a self-destructive gunner and a scrappy two-way catalyst.
