Cavs G Wagner to see specialistCLEVELAND (Ticker) - Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dajuan Wagner, who suffered through an injury-plagued rookie campaign, will visit a specialist on Tuesday to determine treatment for his swollen right knee.

Wagner was held out of Cleveland's last four practices and is set to accompany Dr. Richard D. Parker to Birmingham, Alabama to see a specialist.

"This consultation will help us determine what we need to do next in order to get Dajuan healthy," general manager Jim Paxson said. "When we have made that determination, we will proceed as necessary and provide an update at that time."

Wagner missed the first 14 games of his rookie season after surgery to remove a blood clot following a bladder infection. He also missed the final 20 games after undergoing knee surgery on March 21 to repair torn cartilage on his right knee.

The 20-year-old Wagner averaged 13.4 points in 47 games last year and shot 37 percent from the floor.
