McDermott has cleared the concussion protocol and will play in Friday's game against the Knicks, Nick Friedell of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

McDermott is finally made active after being symptom-free for 24 hours and should return as a fully healthy member of the Bulls' rotation Friday, where he has been playing 24 minutes per game thus far. McDermott's return will likely decrease Nikola Mirotic's minutes off the bench as well as give Dwyane Wade and Jimmy Butler the opportunity to have potentially lighter workloads.
