Allen is one of the NBA's noted tech and robotics enthusiasts — a cerebral, understated big man who has spoken about coding and building, once known for a distinctive afro before changing his look. The son of a pro player, he grew up in Austin steeped in the game, and built his career on efficiency and effort rather than flash.
His identity is doing the unglamorous work at an elite level: rolling to the rim, finishing everything, crashing the offensive glass, and protecting the paint alongside Mobley. On a Cleveland team with two lead scorers, his low-usage, high-efficiency interior play is the connective tissue that makes the frontcourt work.
An efficient, low-maintenance rim-runner and rebounder — elite finishing and interior effort.
