Chris Wilcox, who rejected a trade to the Wizards at the deadline, is hoping to prove his worth to the Celtics. Wilcox was initially set to be sent to Washington with Leandro Barbosa's contract, but Wilcox rejected the deal because he didn't want to lose his Early Bird Rights. Instead, Jason Collins was sent packing to the Wizards in the Jordan Crawford trade. "I know what I need to do to prepare," he said. "I think now it's just more going out and playing my game."
