Spurs' Doug McDermott: Officially out Friday
Rotowire
McDermott (hip) will not play Friday against the Grizzlies.
No surprise here, as McDemott was previously considered doubtful. The Spurs are likely to sit their regulars quite a bit for the remainder of the season. Keita Bates-Diop (Achilles) has been cleared to play and could pick up some run with McDermott out.

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

Rotowire
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.
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.

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

Spurs' Doug McDermott: Pops for 19 points in win
Rotowire
McDermott supplied 19 points (7-14 FG, 5-9 3Pt) and three rebounds over 28 minutes during Tuesday's 102-94 win over Utah.
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' Doug McDermott: Pours in 17 points in return
Rotowire
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.
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.

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