Doug McDermott News, Rumors, Updates - Sacramento Kings

Unlikely to play Friday McDermott is doubtful for Friday's game against Memphis due to a right hip contusion.

Impact McDermott was a late addition to Friday's injury report, and he's unlikely to suit up against the Grizzlies. He's played at least 20 minutes in each of his last four appearances, but Devin Vassell and Keita Bates-Diop (Achilles) could see increased run Friday.

Sinks five triples in win McDermott had 15 points (5-8 FG, 5-8 3Pt), two rebounds, two assists and one steal across 24 minutes during Tuesday's 132-114 win over the Magic.

Impact McDermott sank at least five triples for just the fourth time this season en route to his third consecutive game in double figures. During that stretch, the veteran sharpshooter is averaging 15.3 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.0 steals in 26 minutes with 58/62/67 shooting splits.

Scores 20 off bench McDermott racked up 20 points (7-8 FG, 4-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, one assist and one steal in 28 minutes during Friday's 128-120 win over the Nuggets.

Impact San Antonio's bench outscored Denver's bench 58-25, with McDermott leading the charge after two straight games on the shelf with a thumb injury. The Spurs are finally getting healthy, so it would be wishful thinking to expect this type of production from McDermott going forward.

Good to go Friday McDermott (thumb) is available for Friday's game against the Nuggets, Jeff McDonald of the San Antonio Express-News reports.

Impact McDermott is back following two missed games resulting from a sprained right thumb. The Spurs are as healthy as they've been in a while, though McDermott should still have a role in the rotation, as he has all season. He's shooting 40.2 percent from three since the start of the new year.

Likely to play vs. Nuggets McDermott (thumb) is probable for Friday's matchup against the Nuggets, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Impact After two consecutive absences due to a right thumb sprain, the veteran should be back on the floor Friday. Since Feb. 1, McDermott's averaged 8.3 points, 1.7 assists and 1.4 rebounds in 20.4 minutes.

MARCH 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out Sunday McDermott (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rockets, independent NBA writer Matthew Tynan reports.

Impact This will mark the second straight game on the sidelines for McDermott, and with Jeremy Sochan (knee) joining him on the inactive list, Keldon Johnson and Keita Bates-Diop should get all the run they can handle. McDermott's next opportunity to play will come Friday against the Nuggets.

MARCH 5, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play against Houston McDermott (thumb) is out for Saturday's game versus the Rockets, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Impact McDermott won't play Saturday due to a right thumb sprain he suffered against the Pacers. Keita Bates-Diop will likely receive extended minutes in his absence. McDermott's next chance to suit up is Sunday's rematch with Houston.

MARCH 3, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Will not return Thursday McDermott has been ruled out for the remainder of Thursday's game against the Pacers with a sprained right thumb, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Impact McDermott will finish Thursday's contest scoreless (0-3 FG) with one assist in just seven minutes of action. Keita Bates-Diop and Devin Vassell figure to see more minutes for the rest of the tilt. McDermott's next chance to play will come Saturday against the Rockets in the opening leg of a back-to-back set.

Pops for 19 points in win McDermott supplied 19 points (7-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt) and three rebounds over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 102-94 win over Utah.

Impact McDermott turned back the clock in the win, dropping 19 points, including five triples. Before managers go tripping over themselves to pick him up, it should be noted that this was his highest scoring game since late October. His minutes shift from one game to the next, meaning his ROS outlook is far from certain. At best, he should be viewed as a potential streaming option for anyone desperate for points and threes.

Spurs snap 16-game losing streak with victory over Jazz

Pours in 17 points in return McDermott (Achilles) finished with 17 points (6-9 FG, 5-7 3Pt) and three rebounds in 23 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 120-110 loss to the Hornets.

Impact McDermott had a strong showing in his return from a two-game absence, offering a lift on the second unit with his fourth-best scoring output of the season. The 31-year-old forward likely isn't viewed as a high-priority option for the rebuilding Spurs, so he could see his minutes dip following the All-Star break, when San Antonio will return the likes of Devin Vassell (knee), Tre Jones (foot) and Romeo Langford (adductor) to the rotation at some point.

Iffy against Charlotte McDermott (Achilles) is questionable for Wednesday's game versus the Hornets, Ty Jager of PoundingTheRock.com reports.

Impact McDermott is questionable to miss his third straight game due to right Achilles soreness. Dominic Barlow and Keita Bates-Diop have seen extended minutes in his absence. If McDermott is ultimately ruled out, his next chance to suit up will be Feb. 23 against Dallas.

FEBRUARY 13, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Monday's contest McDermott (Achilles) is questionable for Monday's matchup against Cleveland, Paul Garcia of ProjectSpurs.com reports.

Impact McDermott suffered the Achilles injury during Friday's loss to the Pistons and was sidelined for the Spurs' subsequent contest Saturday. He's one of a handful of players on San Antonio's injury report, so it's currently unclear what Greg Popovich's rotation will look like versus the Cavaliers.

FEBRUARY 12, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Out Saturday McDermott won't play in Saturday's game against the Hawks due to right Achilles soreness, Ty Jager of PoundingTheRock.com reports.

Impact McDermott suffered the injury in Friday's 138-131 double-overtime loss to the Pistons, tallying seven points (3-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt), two assists and one rebound in 19 minutes. The severity of his injury isn't yet known, so he can be viewed as day-to-day heading into the Spurs' upcoming two-game slate next week prior to the All-Star break.
