Allen (ankle) did not practice on Monday, Chris Fedor of Cleveland.com reports.
Coach J.B. Bickerstaff said he was unsure if Allen would be able to practice Tuesday, and that's notable because he wants his center to get in a practice before clearing him to play. More information on Allen's status for Wednesday's season opener at Brooklyn should arrive after Tuesday's practice. If Allen is unable to play, Evan Mobley shift to center, allowing payers like Georges Niang and Dean Wade to see more time at power forward.
