About this model: Net Impact can't measure floor spacing, help defense rotations, or playmaking gravity — so wings and guards are slightly undervalued vs bigs. How Net Impact works

THE SEASON SO FAR

Jarrett Allen’s opening stretch of the 2025-26 campaign was defined by overwhelming interior dominance, though maddening bouts of offensive passivity occasionally derailed his rhythm. Look no further than 11/05 vs PHI, where he dropped 24 points and 10 rebounds to generate a staggering +25.5 impact score by pairing elite rim deterrence with total control of his individual post matchups. Yet, his value did not always rely on a heavy scoring burden. During a quiet eight-point outing on 10/26 vs MIL, Allen still posted a +6.8 impact score because his disciplined verticality and relentless work on the offensive glass created crucial extra possessions. The flip side of that coin appeared on 10/22 vs NYK. A failure to establish deep post position resulted in total offensive invisibility, dragging his overall impact down to a -3.1. He remains a devastating two-way anchor, provided he actually remembers to impose his physical advantages on the defense.

A volatile mix of passive offensive outings and utterly destructive interior dominance defined this mid-season stretch for Jarrett Allen. When he hesitated to establish deep position, his overall value plummeted. Look at the 01/12 vs UTA matchup, where blown finishes and a startling lack of aggression resulted in a dismal -5.8 impact score. Yet he frequently salvaged quiet scoring nights through sheer defensive gravity and positional discipline. During a low-volume 10-point performance on 02/04 vs LAC, he generated a stellar +10.4 impact by locking down the painted area and consistently erasing opponent drives. Then came the absolute apex of his season on 02/01 vs POR. Allen completely dismantled the opposing frontcourt with relentless rim-runs, erupting for 40 points and 17 rebounds to post a laughable +47.8 impact score. When he fully commits to imposing his physical will, few big men can match his two-way footprint.

IMPACT TIMELINE

Game-by-game performance vs average. Green = above average, red = below.

PATTERNS

Very consistent. Allen posts positive impact in 81% of games — you almost always get a productive night. Scoring varies by ~7 points, but the overall contribution stays positive.

Reliable shooter — hits 45%+ from the field in 94% of games. You can count on efficient nights more often than not.

Defensive difference-maker. Allen consistently forces tough shots and protects the rim — opponents shoot worse when he's guarding them.

Getting better as the season goes on. First-half impact: +6.8, second-half: +11.4. That's a significant jump — could be a role change, confidence, or development clicking.

Tends to go on runs. Longest hot streak: 14 games. Longest cold streak: 2 games.
