Dajuan Wagner's career with the Warriors came to a quiet end this weekend when he and the team agreed to a buyout of his contract, according to a source familiar with the negotiations.
The split comes less than two months after Wagner made his impressive training-camp debut and had Warriors personnel calling him a medical miracle. The guard had his colon removed in October 2005 and sat out the 2005-06 season recovering.
His was an early favorite of coach Don Nelson and started six of the Warriors' seven preseason games, twice leading the team in scoring. Wagner wore down as his teammates improved, and he was soon passed in the rotation.
Wagner, 23, started the regular season on the inactive list and played in only one game, scoring four points in seven minutes against Detroit on Nov. 11. He did not travel with Golden State on its three-game road trip and was not with the team Saturday.

NEW YORK -- Dajuan Wagner has accepted a buyout from the Golden State Warriors and is no longer with the team, a source with knowledge of the negotiations tells SI.com.
The 23-year old Wagner signed a two-year contract with the Warriors in the off-season after missing all of the 2005-06 season recovering from surgery to have his colon removed. Wagner scored four points in one game for Golden State this season.
According to the source, Wagner's conditioning had steadily deteriorated since joining the Warriors and after a stellar training camp where Wagner started all but one preseason game and twice led the team in scoring he quickly fell out of favor with head coach Don Nelson. Wagner was not at the Warriors game against Seattle on Saturday with the team reporting he was "under the weather."
A spokesman for the Warriors would not comment but said the team would have an announcement regarding Wagner on Monday.
