    PHILADELPHIA - Dajuan Wagner refuses to let his NBA dream die.
    ''Where I come from, we never quit,'' the Camden native said. ''I don't have any quit in me, so I'm just going to keep going."

    The injuries and illnesses haven't dissuaded the former Camden High star, who made it back to the NBA last year only to have his time with Golden State cut short because he still wasn't feeling up to par.

    Wagner had worked hard all summer and even scored 80 points in a summer league game in Cherry Hill and looked to be the picture of health. He'd impressed the Warriors enough that they signed him to a two-year contract worth a reported $1.6 million.

    He further impressed in the preseason, leading the Warriors in scoring, but then, it all came to an end quickly, and before the start of the regular season, they'd agreed to buyout the remainder of his contract and he was on a plane headed home.

    Now, he is once again starring in local summer leagues, including the Rankin-Anderson League at Drexel, where he dropped 50 in a recent game.

    It was this season just before the official season started. It was also the time period where guys like Wil Bynum were falling out of favor since we basically had Baron Davis, Monta Ellis, Dajaun Wagner, and point guard-sized shooting guard Anthony Roberson.
