McDermott will not return to Friday's game due to an illness, K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Analysis:

McDermott exited Friday's game and will not return due to an undisclosed illness. He only grabbed one rebound in six minutes of action, and the illness is likely a factor in those numbers. He will have time to rest up, as Chicago's next game will not be until Monday. Expect an update on his status prior to that contest.
