The Grizzlies land Merrill, a shooter who spent most of his rookie season in Milwaukee on the bench watching his teammates win a championship. He should play a lot more in Memphis and could become a regular part of the rotation in 2021-22.

In Allen, the Bucks get a more experienced shooting guard who is less than a year older than Merrill. Like Merrill, however, Allen will have to work hard to earn his minutes with the defending NBA champions. The Bucks also got back some cash in this deal.

Merrill is probably the better fantasy option than Allen for '21-22, since the latter will likely have less competition for playing time than the former.
