Allen originally signed a letter of intent with the University of Buffalo but he obtained a release from that school when coach Nate Oats departed in favor of the head-coaching position at Alabama. He played his high school ball at Balboa City School, the same high school as number one NBA Draft pick DeAndre Ayton, where they went 34-6 during his senior season. Allen scored 23 points and 10 rebounds in a game against Victory Prep, which featured current Denver Nugget, Jarred Vanderbilt.
