McDermott notched zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) in six minutes during Friday's 129-120 loss to the Cavaliers.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott continues to be a non-factor for the Pacers, playing fewer than 10 minutes for the fourth time in the past six games. At this point in his career, McDermott is nothing more than a depth piece on any squad, who can occasionally be streamed in for his perimeter scoring.

McDermott (calf) recorded nine points (4-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 16 minutes Wednesday in the Pacers' 122-103 win over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott had missed the Pacers' past 10 games with a right calf strain but returned to action Wednesday and gave Indiana some quality minutes off the bench. Despite the solid showing against Detroit, McDermott is unlikely to see his role grow unless the Pacers are without starting forwards Aaron Nesmith and Pascal Siakam for a given game.

McDermott (calf) is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Pistons, Jeremiah Johnson of Bally Sports Indiana reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott's absence streak is in danger of being extended to 11 games Wednesday due to a right calf strain. However, the veteran forward being initially listed as questionable instead of out is a good sign that he is nearing a return to action.
