Allen averaged a career-high 16.5 points and 10.5 rebounds last season, his third full season with the Cavaliers. He was injured in the playoffs, but he was a dominant force early on in their first round series against the Orlando Magic before he went down. The Cavaliers lost in the Eastern Conference semifinals to the Boston Celtics, which marked their deepest postseason run since they fell in the Finals in 2018.
