Zydrunas Ilgauskas said he was not worried about next week's trade deadline. In order for Cleveland to make a major move, they will likely be forced to deal his expiring contract.

"I want to be here, but we have to wait and see," he said. "I don't know anything. I've got two kids at home. I've got enough stuff to worry about."

Most experts expect Ilgauskas to be waived and return to the Cavaliers if he is traded.

"The puppet has a no-trade contract," he said.
