The Beacon Journal reports that Cavaliers rookie guard DeJuan Wagner may be out for the remainder of the preseason. He is currently in the hospital receiving treatment for a bladder infection.

He may be ready to return by the beginning of the regular season. Cavs? coach John Lucas said he will not put Wagner on the injured list to start the season.

``Dajuan is doing good. He lost about seven or eight pounds and he hopes to get out of the hospital Monday,'' said Lucas, who visited Wagner on Friday at the Cleveland Clinic. ``I took him some game films and some plays. He's ready to get back out there, and he is the real deal. I just hope to have him practice next week.''
