http://www.nba.com/nuggets/news/vsl_2007_index.htmlI was looking through the summer league rosters for various teams, and saw he was on Denver's team. I'm glad to see he's getting another chance in the NBA, even if it is only summer league play. It's a shame because he could have been a solid player in the league, but health problems just screwed him over.If he's past his health problems, I think he could be a cheap, solid addition to Denver's bench. I'm sure his friendship with AI didn't hurt either in him getting an invite.Thoughts?
I wouldn't be surprised if he is on the roster this season, but I doubt he will get any minutes.EDIT: I just realized, Skita is back with us on the Summer League team? Please have his ass cut.
Good move, with a guy like Wagner you always want to see how much hes gotten better after his issues. He was going to be a very good player from what we saw in his rookie season. He might turnout to be a good bench player who can score for Denver. Summer league is for this kindve stuff and Im glad Denver is giving Wagner this opputunity.

I never completely understood what he brought to the table, other than the fact that he is a 7-footer at the SF position...
I don't even know. Everybody knew he was going to be a bust. I thought the same thing with Nene after his first few years, but now he is finally becoming the player the Nuggs thought he would be.
I really hope Wagner plays well and makes the team, I'll be looking out for him when I watch games. Too bad he was cut by Golden State last year, I thought he was gonna stick around. While we're on this subject, is Jay Williams playing for anybody?

I knew Wagner from what he did in Cleveland[Being a Bust]. I do wish him the best of luck, though. I hope he makes Denver's team.</span>
How was Dejuan Wagner a bust in Cleveland? For those 40 or so games he played and before his health issues he averaged 13ppg as a rookie...that isnt a bust, thats a very promising rookie season for a guard.
I remember he was so overrated in like Live 2001 I think it was, whenever I played against him he would put up like 25+ against me.
He's a good talent but I always remember seeing him on the injured list at Cavs games with like Bladder control problems or something related. I wish he never had health issues and stayed with the Cavs.

I forget, but hes a bust. You said it yourself, even though he can't control health problems and sh*t like that, hes still is a bust because he didn't do nothing for this team, at all. </span>
I really hope Wagner and Jason Williams get another chance, Jay Will was responsible for his injury with riding motorcycles and stuff, but I think both of them can be pretty good players if giving the chance.PS- Where can you find the summer league rosters at?

EDIT: Here's most of them. http://www.hoopsworld.com/article_22581.shtml
<span style="font-family:Tahoma">Yeah, you're right. At the time, I didn't know because of that page. It said the rosters weren't out yet. I've already checked my Cavaliers summer league roster.</span>

<span style="font-family:Tahoma">Haha, 100 percent correct! They have very old old news. Why I never bother to go there unless I need some stats or something. </span>
I remember seeing something about them dropping him from their roster but I don't remember where or why. Go Skita!
