EDGE Analysis

McDermott's injury does not appear to be too serious, as he wanted to return to the game. However, the Spurs decided he would remain out as a precaution and get X-rays in Salt Lake City. McDermott will compete with Jeremy Sochan for the team's starting small forward spot for the regular season.
