McDermott (concussion) has been ruled out for the Bulls' next three games, and could miss upwards of five, Nick Friedell of ESPN.com reports.

Coach Fred Hoiberg indicated that McDermott is out for the Los Angeles portion of the team's upcoming road trip, which officially keeps the forward sidelined for the next three games. However, coach Hoiberg didn't rule out the possibility that McDermott may miss the entire trip, which would tack on two additional absences to the ledger. While McDermott is out, Denzel Valentine could see additional playing time on the wing.
