Memphis senior suspended for Final Four

Memphis's backup point guard, senior Andre Allen, has been suspended from the team for a violation of team rules -- reportedly, he failed a drug test -- and will not play in the Final Four.

Allen is described as a "tenacious defensive player who comes off the bench to be a stopper. ... Not having him is a big deal with Memphis facing UCLA's Darren Collison and Russell Westbrook on Saturday."

According to the Memphis Commercial Appeal, head coach John Calipari "did not rule out the possibility of Allen... becoming available Monday if the Tigers reach the NCAA championship game."
