McDermott (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Mavericks.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott is slated to miss a fourth straight game due to a right calf strain. Coach Rick Carlisle said the sharpshooter would miss at least a few contests last week, so McDermott can be considered doubtful, at best, until he returns to practice.

Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said McDermott -- who has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans -- will miss a few contests, Tony East of SI.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Based on Carlisle's comments, McDermott appears safe to rule out for the rest of the week, which means the veteran forward will be sidelined Friday in New Orleans and Sunday in San Antonio. McDermott's upcoming absence should keep a spot in the rotation open for rookie Ben Sheppard.

McDermott (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott will miss at least one game after suffering a calf injury during the second quarter of Monday's loss to Toronto. Ben Sheppard is a candidate for increased playing time in McDermott's absence, though Aaron Nesmith's potential return could mean fewer minutes for the reserves overall.

McDermott won't return to Monday's contest against Toronto due to right calf soreness. He went scoreless (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and recorded no other statistics over five minutes of court time.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott suffered the injury early in the second quarter and checked out with 9:59 remaining in the period. The Pacers may provide an update on McDermott's condition after the game, but for the time being, he can be viewed as questionable ahead of the team's next game Wednesday versus New Orleans.

McDermott (trade pending) is not on the injury report for Saturday's game against New York.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was acquired from the Spurs at the trade dealing with the Pacers looking to add more floor spacing. The veteran sharpshooter is likely to have a limited role at best when the Pacers are at full strength.

McDermott was traded from the Spurs to the Pacers on Thursday for a second-round pick and Marcus Morris, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This is a fairly low-stakes addition for Indiana, who was looking to add a sharpshooter to help fuel a playoff run. McDermott could see a marginally increased role, but it's still unlikely he'll be fantasy relevant.
