Grizzlies' Tony Allen and Ed Davis are doubtful to play against the Thunder

Tony Allen (hip) and Ed Davis (ankle) had limited participation in @memgrizz shootaround today, but neither is expected to play vs. OKC

This isn't the best of news for an OKC skirmish. Kevin Durant will be hard to keep in check without Tony on the court, and Ed Davis' would have given the Grizzlies some much needed energy on the interior.

Mike Conley and Zach Randolph will probably each need to score 20 points for this to turn out well for the Grizzlies.
