McDermott (knee) is available for Monday's game at Memphis, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was questionable with a knee injury and has been cleared to take the court versus the Grizzlies. The 30-year-old is coming off a poor performance, as he posted just four points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and two assists in 20 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Heat.

McDermott is questionable for Monday's game against the Grizzlies due to right knee soreness.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was limited to just four points in 20 minutes during Saturday's loss to the Heat, and he apparently sustained an ankle injury during the matchup. If he's unavailable Monday, Josh Richardson and Romeo Langford (groin) should see additional playing time.

McDermott contributed four points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and two assists across 20 minutes during Saturday's 133-129 loss to the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott failed to make the most of what could have been a nice night, landing just four points. With three primary pieces on the shelf, McDermott had a solid opportunity to step things up on the offensive end. While he has been able to carve out a consistent role for himself, he simply offers nothing outside of the occasional scoring outburst, leaving him as just a streaming option in moderately shallow formats.

McDermott recorded 19 points (7-11 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 29 minutes during Monday's 120-109 loss to Chicago.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was efficient from the field en route to his seventh double-digit scoring performance over his last eight appearances. During that stretch, the sharpshooter has averaged 14.4 points, 2.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 24.5 minutes per game. Romeo Langford and Josh Richardson, who were both acquired via trade ahead of the deadline, were active for Monday's contest, but they didn't see the court. When they get acclimated to San Antonio, it's possible that they cut into McDermott's playing time after the All-Star break.
