He spent the entire 1996-97 season on the injured list due to a broken bone in his right foot.Despite being selected to the All-Rookie First Team in 1997-98 and signing a contract extension in 1998 that was worth 70.9 million over 6 years, Ilgauskas played only in 5 games over the next two seasons. On January 26, 2000, he had a surgery on a fractured navicular bone in his left foot.He remained the starting center for the Cavaliers in 2000-01. However, he was injured again in December 2000 and was out for the season. The injury dealt a blow to the Cavaliers. After winning 15 out of 23 games with Ilgauskas, they finished with a 30-52 record.He returned in December 2001 and was mostly used as a backup to Chris Mihm for the rest of the season.Ilgauskas averaged 17.2 points and 7.5 rebounds in 2002-03. He was selected as an All-Star, but the Cavaliers finished with the third-worst record in team history (17-65) and landed the number one draft pick.The Cavaliers drafted high school phenomenon and future NBA MVP LeBron James in 2003. James teamed up with Ilgauskas and Drew Gooden to form the core of the team.

The deal was reportedly worth over 55 million over 5 years.For the next four seasons, Ilgauskas was the starting center for the team, which had turned into a contender. They reached the NBA Finals in 2007 and the Eastern Conference Finals in 2009. However, in summer 2009, the Cavaliers acquired Shaquille O'Neal. When asked about the trade, Ilgauskas responded: "I was just reading the news. That means I'll probably be coming off the bench." On December 2, 2009, Ilgauskas came off the bench in a game against Phoenix Suns to break the team record for career games played. Washington Wizards On February 17, 2010, Ilgauskas, along with a 2010 first round pick and the rights to Emir Preldžič, were traded from the Cleveland Cavaliers to the Washington Wizards as part of a three-team, six-player trade that also sent Antawn Jamison from Washington to Cleveland, Al Thornton from the Los Angeles Clippers to Washington, Drew Gooden from Washington to Los Angeles, and Sebastian Telfair from Los Angeles to Cleveland.National team Ilgauskas wanted to play for Lithuania national team in the 2008 Summer Olympics.

  • @mode4400 you think so?

  • He's bad, he sucks.

  • @bobcatfan358 I guess you understand that it is a fact that he is LITHUANIAN...

  • @bobcatfan358 welcome to the internet. Google what a internet troll is

  • @MAJORleague32 You`re one of the dumbest persons i`ve ever heard from......damn

  • @MAJOEleague32 As a child you are able to realise that some people aren't from your country and that these people have name that as completely different from yours. For example when I was growing up I knew that Sachin Tendulkar was not english. So are you telling me that american children believe that everyone is from their country?

  • he looked bad ass with that beard

  • @milton456

    fuck yeahhh man !!!

    

  • Ilgauskas is my favorite center of all time big guy that can shot

  • @pokeriotevas I was making a point that, if you are a child and just watch a sport and know nothing of the person and the sport is played in your country, The child will assume he or she is from their country. In America, if a child is born in America they are American(if the family has citizenship). Thats why you will see all different kinds of cultures in America. My grandparents are from Germany, but i was born in America. I am American
