Bulls' McDermott leaves game vs. Knicks, will not return

Doug McDermott left Saturday night's tilt against the New York Knicks with a sore right knee and will not return, according to CSN's Vincent Goodwill.

It's the same knee that caused McDermott to undergo surgery last season.

McDermott has been productive in his sophomore campaign, averaging 9.3 points per game, and shooting 43.5 percent from three, good for 11th in the NBA.

The Bulls are already without Mike Dunleavy, so Tony Snell should see the bulk of the small forward minutes if both continue to miss time.
