Walter Robert "Wally" Szczerbiak (pronounced Surh-Bee-Ak) (born March 5, 1977) is an American professional basketball player for the NBA's Cleveland Cavaliers. Szczerbiak was born in Madrid, Spain, while his father Walter (a former ABA player) was playing for Real Madrid, and spent much of his childhood in Europe during his father's playing career. When Walter retired, he moved his family back to his native Long Island, New York, where Wally attended high school in Cold Spring Harbor. Wally set a cold spring harbor record in 1993. Szczerbiak competed for the Long Island team in the 1997 Empire State Games.

The Minnesota Timberwolves selected Szczerbiak 6th overall in the 1999 NBA Draft. His best year as a pro was 2002 when he was a coaches' selection to the Western Conference All-Star team. Later he tied a Timberwolves franchise record of 44 points on April 13, 2003, since broken by Kevin Garnett. Szczerbiak was coming off the bench for the 2004-2005 NBA season. He was uncomfortable with the role and wanted to be a starter. In the 2005-2006 season, the former All-Star returned to the starting role.

Szczerbiak is an offensive-minded player with an excellent perimeter touch. In the 2006-07 season, Szczerbiak played well early on, including a 35-point performance against the Charlotte Bobcats early in the season.

On February 21, 2008, Szczerbiak was traded from the SuperSonics to the Cavaliers along with Sonics teammate Delonte West and Ben Wallace and Joe Smith from Chicago Bulls in a three-team deal one minute before the deadline expired.
