Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) participated in practice on Friday and seems to be close to returning to game action. The veteran shooter hasn't played since February 26 and there has never been an official timetable for his return. The Pacers don't seem to be in a hurry to get him back on the floor, so he may still have to miss a couple more games. When he was in the rotation, McDermott wasn't receiving that many minutes as he had yet to find a firm role with the team. When he returns, it will likely mean fewer opportunities for Obi Toppin and Jarace Walker, but McDermott won't be fantasy relevant right away.--Alex Fischbein - RotoBaller

Sacramento Kings forward Doug McDermott will move into the starting five ahead of Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran forward will get the starting nod with Kevin Huerter (illness) unable to play. Keon Ellis figured to get the start, but the Kings decided to go with McDermott. Normally, McDermott isn't a great fantasy option off the bench, but he could be more effective with extended run. He should be able to provide reliable shooting from beyond the arc.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

Veteran small forward Doug McDermott has agreed to a one-year contract with the Sacramento Kings. The 32-year-old was a free agent after finishing the 2023-24 campaign with the Indiana Pacers. McDermott averaged only 4.2 points as a member of the Pacers. However, he posted 10-plus points in four consecutive seasons prior to the 2023-24 campaign, and the Kings are getting an extra scoring option in McDermott as a big three-point threat who has nailed 41 percent of his attempts from deep over the course of his career. With that said, McDermott likely won't see enough action to make an impact in fantasy basketball.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller

Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) is available Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. The veteran sharpshooter last played on February 26th and missed 10 consecutive contests due to a right calf strain. He has been average for the Pacers this season. When healthy, McDermott has averaged 4.7 points and 1.0 assists in 13.3 minutes per game during his last 18 outings. Coming back after missing a lengthy period, the 32-year-old will likely see limited minutes.--Andrew Lennox - RotoBaller

Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (calf) is questionable Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. He last played on February 26th, and he's in danger of missing 11 consecutive contests. However, him being listed as questionable instead of out is good news for Indiana. If the veteran forward cannot suit up due to a right calf strain, Jarace Walker, Obi Toppin and Ben Sheppard could see more playing time. Unfortunately, the four forwards aren't solid fantasy options for Wednesday's matchup.--Andrew Lennox - RotoBaller
