Similar to the Harry Giles situation, an injury to a fellow Duke basketball product, this time involving the hip of new Memphis Grizzlies acquiree Justise Winslow, could lead to extra playing time for Grayson Allen. The 2015 National Championship Game hero was averaging 7.4 points across 16.6 minutes before his own hip injury in January. Healthy now, the 6-foot-4, 200-pound guard has carved out a role in scrimmages and could be a secret weapon for playoff hopefuls.
