Marcus Allen ruled out for 2026-27 season with ACL injury

Summary

Miami Hurricanes forward Marcus Allen will miss the entire 2026-27 season after suffering an ACL tear. Allen's injury follows a battle with cancer that sidelined him for most of the previous season. He had initially transferred from Missouri to Miami before the 2025-26 season, where he averaged 5.3 points and 3.1 rebounds in eight games. After announcing he was cancer-free in June, Allen's return to the court was highly anticipated, but the ACL tear has now delayed his comeback.
