Expert Analysis

Miles Masercola

Prep Hoops Scout

Allen did a great job this weekend for his DBA Elite 17u team as he helped run the show for what was a really successful weekend for this group. Allen is a true two way guard that plays the game the right way at both ends of the floor. He possesses the ability to make reads in ball screen situations and does a great job getting the ball to the hot hand when applicable. Allen also knows when to push the pace, when to slow it down, and when to take over scoring the ball on his own. He can attack the basket and finish in traffic along with being able to knock down outside shots. He looks like a bonafide next level guy and should start to garner more attention here soon on the recruiting trail with the live period on the horizon.

Prep Hoops Scout

Allen earned his place in the rankings by showcasing exceptional vision, control and versatility as a playmaker. With tight handles, he navigates traffic smoothly, creating space for himself and keeping defenders off balance. His ability to read the floor and make the right play, whether it’s finding an open teammate or creating his own shot he keeps the offense flowing and dangerous. What sets Allen apart is how complete his offensive game has become. He can score at all levels, stays composed under pressure, and makes those around him better every possession. That combination of poise, creativity and scoring touch makes him a well rounded guards in this class and deserving of the ranking

Clayton Conover

Prep Hoops Lead Scout

Allen is integral towards Denver Academy’s success, taking on plenty of ball handling responsibilities to survey the floor for his next move. Comfortable changing the pace as needed, he works to keep his head up in spite of traps along the perimeter or farther out. An accurate passer with one hand as needed, the guard brings important tools to maintaining this group’s composure.
