McDermott had three points (1-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds, and two assists in 33 minutes during the Bulls' 125-94 loss to the Warriors on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott is managing only 6.2 points, 2.8 rebounds, 0.4 assists, and 0.4 steals in 24 minutes per game over the last five games. His inconsistencies make him tough to trust in fantasy--and he doesn't provide much besides scoring.

McDermott, who had been dealing with a sprained right ankle, will play Thursday against the 76ers, Nick Friedell of ESPN Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
As expected, McDermott went through shootaround Thursday morning and will be good to go for the Bulls' matchup in Philadelphia. With Pau Gasol (shoulder/Achilles) officially out and Jimmy Butler (ankle) considered a game-time decision, McDermott could be in line to see additional minutes off the bench.

McDermott (ankle) is officially designated as probable for Thursday's matchup with Philadelphia, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott emerged from Tuesday's loss to the Bucks with a sprained right ankle, but it doesn't look to be anything serious, and the expectation is that he'll be available off the bench Thursday. The second-year swingman played only six minutes Tuesday, going scoreless while misfiring on both of his field goal attempts.

McDermott (knee) will play Wednesday against the Pacers, Mike McGraw of the Daily Herald reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was a game-time decision for Wednesday's game, and the Bulls decided that he would return to action after sitting out Monday. McDermott scored in double figures just once in the last five games he played and may not be 100 percent, making him tough to trust in fantasy lineups Wednesday night.

McDermott went through shootaround Wednesday and is considered a game-time call to play against the Pacers, KC Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott is battling a minor right knee strain, and the injury kept him out of Monday's win over Toronto. The second-year forward is averaging more than 23 minutes per game in December, and if he returns to the lineup Wednesday, Tony Snell figures to see a reduction in playing time, as could Kirk Hinrich.

McDermott underwent an MRI on Tuesday, which revealed a right knee strain, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was held out of Monday's win over the Raptors with what was initially diagnosed as a right knee sprain, but the follow-up MRI showed that there were no structural issues with the forward's surgically-repaired knee. The Bulls are labeling McDermott as day-to-day, and haven't ruled him out from playing in Wednesday's game against the Pacers.

McDermott underwent an MRI on his sprained right knee Tuesday, Nick Friedell of ESPN Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Bulls were forced to sit McDermott on Monday against the Nets with what was thought to be a minor knee sprain, but the results of an MRI will likely determine when McDermott can make a return to game action. If the injury is not serious, as originally expected, he could play as early as Wednesday against the Pacers. If he ends up missing additional time, expect Bobby Portis and Tony Snell to see increased roles.

McDermott was a late scratch from Monday's game due to his sore right knee, Nick Friedell of ESPN Chicago reports.
EDGE Analysis
It was announced Monday afternoon that McDermott would be able to play through the injury Monday, but the Bulls decided just before game time that he would sit out. His next chance to play will come Wednesday against the Pacers.

McDermott, who had been dealing with soreness in his right knee, will play Monday against the Nets, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was forced to exit Saturday's game against the Knicks prematurely due to the minor injury, but the issue isn't serious enough to hold him out of Monday's contest. Expect McDermott to see his usual 20-to-30 minutes on the court, as the Bulls will look to him for an offensive spark.

McDermott is dealing with a sore right knee and will not return to Saturday's game, Chris Kuc of the Chicago Tribune reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott had scored in the double-digits in three of the last four games, so his absence could hurt the Bulls offense moving forward. More information regarding the severity of the injury will likely arrive after the game.
