Dajuan Wagner: The Camden Legend touted as THE NEXT ALLEN IVERSON… But his body FAILED HIM | FPP
Спорт
He is a legend in Camden, New Jersey; he was nothing short of a phenom during his high school career with the Camden Panthers. He left the school after his 2001 senior season as the highest scoring player in New Jersey State history, and in his senior year had done the improbable, as he scored 100 points in a single game; as the best moment of a career filled with high scoring. He would be the first Blue Chip prospect for Coach John Calipari, after he took over the Memphis Tigers coaching position. And Wagner would impress in his freshman season, as he would lead the Tigers to the NIT championship and take home the MVP. He would then be drafted to the Cleveland Cavaliers where he would spend some time on a rebuilding Cavs team with guys like Ricky Davis, Darius Miles, and LeBron James. But Wagner could barely stay on the court; as along with your typical sports injuries, it was discovered quite early that he had ulcerative colitis, which would essentially end his career at the age of 22 years old. He would have a brief comeback with the Golden State Warriors in 2007, but that lasted one game, as overall he appeared in just 103 games throughout his NBA career; and even though he never fulfilled the expectations it was due to his body failing him; as Dajuan Wagner could score however he wanted and if he would have been able to polish his game and improve his basketball IQ; he could have been a perfect sidekick to LeBron James; but that just wasn’t how it panned out for the High School Great.

None of them are forgotten. Other then billy owens
Omg please do Jamal tinsley next he was one of my favorite underated PG'S back when I was young
Dajuan Wagner would’ve been a superstar in the league, if they had developed him. He consistently delivered outstanding performances, including a remarkable 100-point game. He made a huge impact on the game.🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
Vlade Divac next? He had a very unique career. Best channel ever!!
Would’ve been up there with top players in his era is the injury gods didn’t say differently
Thanks for this one. Camden Strong baby ❤️💯💪🏾 his son nice too just went to the wrong school

His son can still transfer out of Kentucky
Dajuan Wagner would have been a star in the league, I wonder how that young Cavs team would have been if they all developed together.
I wish he never gotten sick. He could have been an all star
Legend in Jersey! I remember him coming up but because of lack of internet I didn’t know details of all the stuff he had went through. Great video, and wish him and DJ all the best!
These videos are🔥 if we could get one on Brent Barry, he is the only player in NBA history to lead the league in both three point percentage and two point percentage ever. He was Jason Williams before Jason Williams
Best episode yet!!!! Thank you🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
He had the best HS mixtape I've ever seen.
Thanks for this!
Enjoying your content 🎉
Another excellent job on this one my guy.
Love your content brother. Could you do Jason Richardson or Joe Johnson?
Thank you 😊
LeBron made every other player a complete afterthought no matter who they had.

Nice
I know you have already done so many Arizona guys, but one on Richard Jefferson would be so good!
Sweet
Big Jersey!
I don't know if you ever profiled him or not but if not you should do T.J. Ford. Monster

which one whattt
They made this dude so filthy in nba street 2
Please do Jamal Crawford next
Man talk about a shitty hand getting dealt.. poor guy suffered more internal infections & injuries at such a young age than any player ever. High school Mt Rushmore tho for sure
I have the same disease he has, i actually have crohns too. Wats sad is as young kids we were never educated about stuff like this. They just want to cut on you and make money wit medicines when all you really have to do is change your diet. Dajuan was hard tho, a big NBA what if because he had the talent
Imagine a healthy Wagner and Boozer with Lebron, a dynasty in the making in Cleveland.
Lorenzen Wright next?
Darius Miles and Q ?
Probably could've been LeBrons first Kyrie Irving
Damn never waited this long for a new forgotten player profile episode.
Elton brand
No Memphis Jersey only championship he ever won after high School
