NOTES—Doug McDermont missed his first game of the season with a sore right knee. The rookie said the knee swelled up during the plane ride back to Chicago on Sunday following the conclusion of the seven-game road trip. ”If I feel better tomorrow, I’ll play. It’s nothing serious at all.” … Taj Gibson missed his fifth straight game with a sprained left ankle. Although he is listed as day-to-day, he’s unlikely to play Wednesday at Charlotte because he hasn’t done any work with the team.
