COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dajuan Wagner left training camp Wednesday to attend to a personal matter. The Cavaliers said Wagner returned to his home in Camden, N.J., but the team did not give a reason for his departure. The Cavaliers don't know when Wagner will return. KYW-TV in Philadelphia reported Wednesday night that Wagner's sister was injured the day before when she fell out of a school bus. The station reported she was taken to Cooper University Hospital in Camden. A nursing supervisor there told The Associated Press the parents of the injured girl requested no information be released about her condition. The Courier-Post of Cherry Hill reported Wednesday that a 17-year-old Camden girl remained in critical, but stable, condition Wednesday with a fractured skull received when she fell from a rear emergency door of a school bus. Police said the bus was taking students home from the Pennsauken Campus of Camden Vocational and Technical High School when some students started throwing items around the vehicle. The driver radioed that he was having trouble and was told to return to the school, police said. As he did so, several students opened the rear door of the bus and the girl fell, Camden Police Lt. Michael Lynch told the newspaper. Wagner, selected in the first round of the 2002 draft, has had several setbacks during his career. He has played in just 91 games because of injuries the past two seasons, and his stepfather is currently on trial, accused of running a drug-selling operation in New Jersey.

Wagner and his family have been put through a lot. I hope everything will be ok with his sister. He needs to get some more practice time in. He is close to getting traded or not getting his contract option picked up.
